How do I grade a product?

As an educator, you can use LearnPlatform to grade a product, letting others know your experience and opinion of an edtech product.

Grading a product allows you to offer structured feedback using LearnPlatform's Grading Rubric. Using the rubric survey, you can give feedback on various aspects of a product such as its overall usefulness, its value, its impact on learning, and your experience with it.

Other users can view your grades.

Notes:

  • Product grades do not expire.
  • If you submit feedback for a product you’ve already graded, your new feedback replaces the original. 
  • In the Organization Product Library, organizational grades only display after a minimum of three grades are submitted. This protects anonymity of the reviews.
  • Account settings determine whether educator grades and feedback are shared anonymously. Administrators can learn more about hiding educator names by managing access controls.
