IIT Bombay incubated startup InOpen Technologies has tied-up with technology services firm Report Bee to make interactive report cards. InOpen Technologies and Report Bee are now strategic partners to revamp the report card into a meaningful and fun feedback system.
They have developed a system to harness granular information about various learning, activities and initiatives happening in the school ecosystem in an organized manner and easy-to-implement mind-map based data collection.
This information is then transformed into aesthetically designed student/parent user friendly report cards. These report cards also feature comments on strengths and weaknesses as well as details related to life skills of each child.

Through this, both the companies intend to help the educators and parents to access historical trends of student's performance, find out what teaching method works or which student needs help in a specific subject, discover a pattern in sudden improvements and identify their own best and worst practices, right at their fingertips by their consistent and systematic tracking. Using algorithms, the application summarizes every aspect of a student's school history onto a single page.
Ananth Mani, Founder, Report Bee said, "We want the report cards to be like a family album that one enjoys seeing time and again, see various events and like. The reports should talk back to the users. We wanted to create a report card that is a beautiful visual presentation of every student's holistic progress and achievements; A report card that every student will love, parents treasure and schools benefit from."
