How do I capture evidence for an assessment in the Mastery Connect Teacher app?
On June 27, 2024, the Mastery Connect Teacher and Student mobile apps will be discontinued. There will be no further app updates and functionality will no longer be guaranteed. It is recommended that educators and students remove these apps from their devices and connect via their web browser or the Canvas mobile app.
For more information, refer to the Mastery Connect product blog.
As a Mastery Connect teacher, you can use the Mastery Connect Teacher app on a mobile device to capture evidence of learning. You can add a note or upload an image for each student's assessment using your mobile device.
You can capture evidence of learning as it happens in the classroom, outdoors, or elsewhere. It is used to show student work on math problems, diagrams on a white board, or projects such as visual arts. The feature also captures evidence to show justification and provide context for changing a score in a tracker.
