What route is available today?
Three steps, and the last one belongs to your platform.1
Mark the paper
The student’s answer sheet is evaluated first. Marking saves the marks for each answer and the feedback comments explaining what was wrong. Both are needed before any plan can be written. See Evaluate an exam.
2
Create a student action plan
Your platform sends the answer sheet ID and reads the plan back once it is ready. The plan contains a summary of the paper, what the student should do next, a skill focus, an encouraging tip, and the advice for each question where marks were lost.
3
Share what you choose to share
This step is entirely yours. The API returns text, so your platform decides which parts a family sees, in which screen or message, and after whose approval. Nothing happens automatically.
What the API does not do in this route
- It does not rewrite a plan for a parent audience. The wording is addressed to the student.
- It does not translate. Plans are written in English only.
- It does not send anything. There is no email, SMS, or messaging in the service.
- It does not decide who may read a plan. It returns the plan to the API user that created it, and the rest is your call. Note that a second API user on the same account will not get the plan back, so create it with the user that needs it.
