How EdMod Helps
EdMod is the only research-based solution that supports teachers, improves student outcomes and engages all stakeholders.
Learning Biography
EdMod automatically pulls critical student data and information from a school or district’s IEP system and puts it into the Learning Biography, an easily accessible, user-friendly dashboard that is available to teachers whenever they need it. EdMod’s Learning Biography helps teachers answer questions like:
- Which students in my class have an IEP?
- What specific diagnoses do my students have?
- How do different diagnoses manifest in the classroom?
- What are my students’ testing accommodations?
- What strategies worked for my students in their class last year?
Team Board
EdMod is a single point of communication & data-sharing around the individual needs of students. What is normally buried in emails or tracked in various spreadsheets, can now be communicated, all in one place. The Team Board allows teachers to quickly update other members of their team about a student’s wins or challenges, with notifications alerting members of the staff or administration about recent additions.
- Which teachers have already made contact with home?
- When was the IEP last updated?
- How can I know what other teachers have documented?
- What behavior strategies have worked in the past?
- How can I notify other teachers that my student is having a bad day?
Student Filter Views
EdMod gives teachers and administrators the ability to filter, sort, save and export lists of students based on specific criteria. The Student Filter View is essentially a customizable reporting tool that can provide deep insight into groups of students and their unique classifications, plans, accommodations and needs. It displays student data and information from the Learning Biography in an easy-to-share usable spreadsheet. EdMod’s Student Filter Views helps to provide data for questions like:
- Which students in my class have an IEP, 504 plan or are ELL?
- Which students in my class who have an IEP are classified with Autism?
- When are the annual meetings for my students with IEPs?
- Which of my students have the same testing accommodations?
- Who are the case managers for my students this year?
Goal Progress Monitoring
EdMod takes the mystery out of goal creation and progress monitoring by helping teachers create trackable goals aligned to student learning needs. Using simple AI, EdMod guides teachers to write measurable goals, select relevant data collection tool templates, attach supporting evidence and student work and view a visualization of progress on every goal over time.
- What goals are my students currently working towards?
- How do I share goals with all team members?
- How can I collect data on this goal in my class?
- What tools or assessments are being used for progress monitoring of this goal?
- What evidence or documentation is available for this goal?
Strategy Library

Our strategy database now contains over 300 open-and-go accommodations, modifications, activities, interventions & assessments for a wide-range of classifications and skill gaps.
