Livermore, CA, August 6, 2024—GradeCam, a trailblazer in the EdTech industry for over 20 years, is thrilled to announce the official rebranding and relaunch of Gradient, its K-12 assessment solution. Gradient’s sleek, new look is designed to reflect its rich feature set and ease of use, which meet the evolving assessment, data, and reporting needs of schools and districts nationwide. With its commitment to simplicity and functionality, Gradient supports both the daily needs of teachers and the strategic goals of administrators.
Administrators are turning to Gradient for its robust platform at a fraction of the cost of other assessment solutions. Schools and districts can access a comprehensive suite of features without being burdened by unnecessary and expensive extras. This approach not only makes Gradient an affordable choice but also guarantees that every aspect of the platform is utilized effectively to improve the assessment process, both in the classroom and at the school-wide level.
Administrators benefit from Gradient’s comprehensive features, including a centralized hub for school-wide data and the option to add pre-built standardized exams like the ACT or mock Regents. This allows for efficient tracking of standards-based learning and managing data reporting to enhance decision-making processes. Moreover, Gradient integrates seamlessly with existing Learning Management Systems (LMS) and gradebooks, such as Canvas, Schoology, Google Classroom, Jupiter Ed, and JumpRope.
As schools increasingly transition to digital solutions, many continue to also rely on traditional paper assessments. By integrating both paper and online assessments, Gradient provides a versatile solution that supports the diverse needs of today’s educational environment. Best described as “Assessment Made Easy,” this update underscores the company’s dedication to simplifying and streamlining how schools and districts handle both paper and online assessment administration and reporting.
“GradeCam has long been a trusted name in the classroom, empowering educators to create, score, and record formative and summative assessments with remarkable efficiency,” said Scott Hickson, CEO of GradeCam.
Customers agree that Gradient is the assessment solution of choice. “As director of educational technology for the Capistrano Unified School District in southern California, it was my department’s responsibility to find a program to replace our current system. We had been with that system for over ten years. We needed to switch to a program that provided similar tools without the high price tag,” commented Stephanie Avera, Chief Technology Officer of Capistrano Unified. “Gradient had everything we needed in a program to replace our current system, so it was an easy decision to move forward with Gradient.”
