Create CTE standards-aligned assessments

Grade open-ended responses with rubric-based AI and a state rubric library

by the Wayground Team
New
Grading open-ended responses consistently takes time, and when scoring feels different across classes, it's hard to trust the data. You can now use rubric-based AI grading with table-based scoring and import official state rubrics.

by the Wayground Team
Finding the right NYSTP practice questions takes time you don't have. Wayground now has NYSTP released items organized by New York State Learning Standards, so you can build targeted review in minutes.

by the Wayground Team
New

Build standard-aligned resources with STAAR questions

by the Wayground Team

Give partial credit on MSQ, HotText, and Hotspot questions

by the Wayground Team
New
When a student is close but not fully correct, all-or-nothing scoring can hide what they actually know. Partial grading for MSQ, HotText, and Hotspot lets you award partial marks for more accurate assessment data.

Performance & Security
