Technical Considerations

Districts today differ widely when it comes to implementing technology, and with so many different platforms and configurations in use, educators need a flexible solution to meet their needs.

Acuity™ stands out by giving educators an all-in-one system that includes predictive, diagnostic, and custom assessments, plus reporting, instruction, and a variety of delivery formats—all contained within one easy-to-use system. And Acuity’s modular format makes it easy to:

  • Integrate quickly and compatibly with existing technology
  • Manage large amounts of student data cost-effectively
  • Choose the delivery format best suited to your school or district

System Infrastructure:
Acuity includes a server that will be strategically located in your district and within your firewalls—delivering fast response times and ensuring availability. This additional support is:

  • Provided at no additional cost
  • Configured and maintained remotely by CTB/McGraw-Hill engineers

Flexible implementation models:
Acuity provides flexible options for creating and delivering assessments: online, paper-and-pencil, pre-made, and customized, or any combination.

Scan and Score Processing:
Acuity’s easy-to-use scan and score processing tools give educators all the benefits of the Acuity online platform, plus offline assessment administration.

Acuity accepts scanned bubble sheets that deliver data to inform instruction and ensure students are tracking toward success relative to important achievement goals.

CTB provides a helpful software application that works with image-based and OMR scanners to scan completed assessment forms. Additionally, when using image-based scanners, Acuity provides software which allows schools to print their own custom answer sheets.
