Frequently asked questions
How does it work?
We’ve mapped all standard outcomes into a knowledge-graph, along with all associated pre-requisites, and have created diagnostic questions tailored to each outcome. As students complete these diagnostic questions and move into Waypoints’ growth phase, Waypoints automatically selects the best outcomes to assess at each check-in, based on the information we have gathered for that student. This is all done through the use of an adaptive algorithm - based on Item Response Theory, and powered by our proprietary machine learning engine.
Why should I trust the results?
For over 15 months, we have refined the models for a reasonably accurate diagnostic assessment from a cold start. But with machine learning, the more data we have, the smarter the models get. As such, we’ve been running trials and continue to further tune the algorithms based on the feedback we receive from past, current, and future users.
What curricula are covered?
For now, Waypoints covers the Australian Curriculum and VIC Curriculum across grades 3 to 10A. However, we’re working on expanding our coverage - you can get in contact with us to learn more.
What do my students see with their free account?
Students are able to do as many check-ins as they want on Waypoints to assess their own mathematical understanding. After completing the 10 short check-ins required for the diagnostic phase, students will gain access to a skills report. From here, they can track their understanding of each skill by strand. If the student also has a Mathspace subscription, they can jump into Mathspace straight from their Waypoints skills report to practise any skill that they want to work on.
