We need to create a way to connect users who have purchased Vizzle from the MTSS Plan to Vizzle assignments. Linking users from a plan documenting academic goals for students to the academic lessons and associated progress is a key differentiator for us in the MTSS space. This serves to save educators time and reduce the number of vendors a district needs to partner with in order to fully implement MTSS in their district.

User Stories:

  • As a user creating an ELA or Math MTSS Plan, I want to select Vizzle assignments for my student, so that I do not have to go somewhere else to find ELA or Math lessons for my student.

  • As a user Viewing an ELA or Math MTSS Plan with a connected Vizzle lesson, I want to modify the Vizzle assignment, so I can ensure my student’s needs are met.

  • As a user viewing an assignment in Vizzle that is connected to an MTSS ELA or Math Plan, I want to view the plan, so I can make any modifications to the plan and assignment.

  • As a user viewing an ELA or Math MTSS Plan with a connected Vizzle lesson, I want to view my student’s average score on the Vizzle assignments, so I can assess if my student is making progress.

  • As a user viewing an ELA or Math MTSS Plan that is not connected to a Vizzle lesson, I want to enter a score, so I can justify student progress.

Questions

  • What if assignment already exists for the student?

    • Can it be added to the plan?

    • If so, is it now locked in Vizzle?

    • How should we display progress?

  • What if student link between systems is broken?

  • What if student previously completed an assignment in Vizzle so a score already exists? Can we count progress from time it was added to MTSS plan only?
