How these numbers workShowHide
- Mastery
- For each topic in the study design, how well a student knows it, from 0 to 100%, based on their quizzes and practice in otto.
- Readiness
- The average of a student's topic masteries in a subject. A class, a subject or the whole school is the average of its students. 59% means students have, on average, mastered 59% of what their exams cover.
- Points
- How far a percentage moved. "+3 points" means readiness went from 56% to 59%. Changes are over the last two weeks unless it says otherwise.
- At risk
- A student under 45% readiness. Slipping means readiness fell 3 or more points in two weeks. Not studying means no study in otto this week.
- Estimated study score
- Readiness converted to the 50-point study score scale with a simple formula. A rough guide to where scores are heading, not a prediction.
- Equity gap
- The difference in readiness between the top quarter and the bottom quarter of students.
- Value-add
- How much the average student's readiness rose over the last two weeks.
- Coverage
- How much of the study design students have been assessed on in otto so far.

Upcoming SACs
Teachers tag each SAC with the topics it covers. otto shows how ready the class is on exactly those, who isn't yet, and sets a revision set in one click: due two days before, in every student's Today.
Revision set is in everyone's Today.
In Class: A 3-Minute Check
At the end of a lesson the teacher picks what they taught. otto writes questions where every wrong answer is a known misconception, students answer on their phones, and the teacher sees the misconception worth stopping for, with what to say. Students who missed it get a fix-up in their otto that night. 12 Biology, 17 students:
Set Work
A topic set by a teacher lands at the top of the student's Today as a short lesson then a quiz. It counts as done when the quiz is marked, so you see who did it without collecting anything.

Every Monday, in Every Teacher's Inbox
Teachers don't have to open a dashboard to act on it. Each one gets a short briefing for their own classes: otto's reading of the school, the students worth a conversation, SACs coming up and how ready the class is, set work still open, and what their classes got wrong and are asking about.
Teachers can turn it off, and every name links to that student's profile and one-page report.

The top quarter of students are 80% ready, the bottom quarter 40%. The bottom quarter moved +1 point in 2 weeks, so the gap is not closing yet.
How much the average student's readiness rose in 2 weeks. 30 of 36 students improved.
