About TEAMS

TEAMS (The Education Assets Management

System) is a cloud based offering for sharing

instructional resources, data and business

applications across multiple districts.

As a teaching tool, it supports instructional

best practice and is used to locate

instructional resources to plan, guide, and

differentiate instruction.

As a learning tool, it provides insights to

identify gaps in individual student

performance and align resources most likely

to improve understanding.

Page 4: Teams introduction and orientation

Assets Hub

Instructional resources (IRs) can be created using a

collaborative effort by assigning specific components

to school districts best equipped to deliver quality

content based upon their track record.

Curriculum specialists and teachers create and upload

their schools content, align them to standards and

organize them into libraries that so they can be found

by others and shared with other school districts.

School districts may subscribe to and share libraries

with other members of TEAMS to create a trusted

network of resources.

Workflows embedded in the application support the

authoring, review, and approval of instructional

content items so users can trust the content they are

using.

access to will depend on their licensing

agreement with TEAMS.

Customer administrators have full access

to manage the list of available reports

including the ability to;

• Describe and categorize reports• Control report security• Create new report definitions• Modify report definitions

Reports can remain in Draft status until

they are ready to be published allowing for

report customizations to happen without

impacting end-users.

Page 44: Teams introduction and orientation

Methods available for reporting

The list of methods available for

reporting is based on the modules and

customizations available to each

customer.

A data catalogue is shared with

customer administrators who wish to

define their own reports.

Regardless of the type of data (tables,
