LinkIt! is primarily a K-12 educational technology platform providing data analytics, assessment management, and intervention support for schools, helping teachers track student progress through dashboards and reporting.
PALCS uses LinkIt! to track student progress with data analysis and also to administer certain benchmark tests. A benchmark test is a periodic assessment given throughout the school year to measure student progress against specific academic standards, helping teachers gauge if students are on track for end-of-year goals and identify areas needing instructional adjustments.
