STEM Themes and Projects

Each unit of Redbird Mathematics is embedded in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) theme. Select units, highlighted red, conclude with a digital project-based learning experience focused on the unit’s theme.

The instructional model for Redbird Mathematics' digital STEM projects consists of 4 parts:

1. Introduction to the topic to engage students with videos providing background information and career connections.
2. Math Tasks where students explore mathematical constraints for the problem and showcase their math proficiency.
3. Solution Creation using design, coding, or simulation tools to solve the STEM problem.
4. Concluding Activities including challenges, extensions, and feedback about the project.

Overview

Redbird Mathematics provides robust reporting capabilities that empower educators to personalize instruction and accelerate learning. All reports are real-time and accessible online in the click of a button. With data that is easy to understand, teachers can immediately:

• Track progress of the entire class in one dashboard
• Use data to inform their instructional planning
• Share results with parents to improve transparency

District-level reports help administrators easily see how often the program is being used and how schools within the district are performing. While Redbird Mathematics offers a robust suite of reporting capabilities, these are the key reports you won’t want to miss.

Standards Proficiency Report

Shows student progress and proficiency against Common Core State Standards* at the class level. This report helps teachers pinpoint where individuals or groups of students may be struggling or progressing giving them the opportunity to provide the appropriate support or encouragement where students need it most.

*Select state-specific standards proficiency reports are also available.

News Feed

View Student History

1. Filter by specific alert type (or view All) by selecting the Filter buttons.
2. You can sort the list by date or student by selecting Group buttons.
3. Notifications appear for last seven (7) days and are not dependent on when you were online.
4. Notification tiles are grouped by Date first (with Today at the top).

Student Snapshot

Sequence of every attempt at a skill, including a heat map showing student progress by calendar day. Enables teachers to review progress, discuss understandings, and improve effective use of Redbird.

Student Replay

Keystroke-by keystroke replay of every student action including instruction and open ended responses. Enables teachers to review and discuss areas where a student struggles.

Provides data by school, with a rollup across all classes within the district. Easy color coding helps administrators see at a glance how often the program is being used and if the program is being used with fidelity. Usage is reported out in three ways:

1. Average number of minutes in program per week
1.  60-90 min/week is recommended
2. Average number of student lessons completed per week
1.  2+ lessons completed/week is the target
3. Average number of precursor lessons completed

NOTE: The District Benchmark report is visible only to administrator-level Redbird accounts.
