How It Works

MAAT Assess connects five steps — measure, diagnose, plan, teach, and monitor — so an assessment result always leads to an instructional decision a teacher can act on.

1. Assess

Teachers assign a reading or mathematics diagnostic, a short mastery check, or their own classroom quiz to a student, a group, or a whole class. Students take it in a calm, one-question-per-screen player that saves every answer as it goes and picks up exactly where it left off after a dropped connection.

2. Diagnose

Responses are scored by a deterministic, versioned scoring service. Each skill that received evidence is classified — Emerging, Developing, Demonstrated, or Insufficient Evidence — under the assessment's written scoring policy. Where there isn't enough evidence to say something, the report says so instead of guessing.

3. Plan

The platform ranks skill gaps, checks prerequisite skills first, and suggests instructional groups of students who share the same need. Teachers approve, edit, or discard every suggestion before it becomes a learning plan.

4. Teach

Every skill in the MAAT skill graph links to a teacher-led lesson, a small-group activity, and a home activity, so moving from a report to instruction takes one click.

5. Monitor

Mastery checks, intervention probes, and follow-up diagnostics add new evidence over time. Progress-monitoring charts plot each measurement against a baseline-to-goal aim line so teams can decide whether to continue, intensify, or change an approach.
