Company Description

Feedback Forward is a formative assessment tool designed to make daily exit tickets more meaningful and enable students to reflect on success indicators beyond mastery, including engagement. Our parent company, Opportunity Education, is a mission-driven nonprofit that helps teachers improve their practice while supporting students in taking ownership of their learning. Feedback Forward is used daily by 50 teachers and 500 students in our four Network Schools.

For this pilot, we’re intentionally recruiting teachers unaffiliated with our organization to bring fresh perspectives and honest feedback.
