How EdTech Software Engineering works in SkillScorer
Score
Each team member in a team is scored on the EdTech Software Engineering skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank team members, compare two side by side, or compare your teams against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which EdTech Software Engineering skills need attention. Reports also follow each team lead's team.
EdTech Software Engineering scorecard: common questions
What skills does the EdTech Software Engineering scorecard include?
SkillScorer's EdTech Software Engineering scorecard covers 10 skills: Clean, Maintainable Code, Scalable Architecture for Peak Usage, LMS and Standards Integrations (LTI, SCORM, xAPI), Data Privacy and Student Data Security, Accessibility Implementation, Mobile and Offline Learning Support, Testing and Release Quality, Performance and Reliability, APIs and Data Analytics for Learning and Collaboration and Code Review. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are team members scored in EdTech Software Engineering?
Every team member is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one team and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
