State standardized assessments have become the primary measuring stick for our districts, schools and students; however, I would argue these are too often just an autopsy to tag a score. Seldom is this data used for data driven decisions or differentiated instruction. Student response systems can be the EKG monitor that reveals the peaks and valleys of every students' comprehension and learning. The output data can then be used to diagnosis, evaluate and adjust the instructional process to increase achievement rather simply assign a label.
