PearsonAccess Redesign
PearsonAccess Redesign Coming in 2018–2019 The redesign is aimed at simplifying the platform to make it more intuitive, efficient, and flexible, while maintaining the ability to scale effectively. Intuitive. Increase the usability of the interface through consolidation of common interactions within the system. This will enable users to be more self-directed in navigating and performing tasks within the system. Efficient. Simplify and minimize interactions and functions users perform to find and manage data. Flexible. Ensure that the system design and capabilities meet the needs of all users, no matter the role, and all districts and schools, no matter the size. Less clicks One screen access to student data Easier navigation between student test data and session management
