Assistments
Teachers Face A Dilemma They are being asked to assess students more, but every minute of class time spent in testing is a minute of instructional time that is lost. ASSISTments solves this dilemma, by letting students get individual feedback while their learning progress is assessed. ASSISTments is a free online platform that allows teachers to write and select questions, students get immediate and useful tutoring, and teachers receive instant reports to help inform their classroom instruction.

(Particularly impressive was the diverse mix of men and women presenting.) Many startups religiously follow lean advice from the likes of Eric Ries (Lean Startup), Steve Blank (Customer Development), and others that focus on continuous cycles of building, measuring, and learning through testing assumptions, validating learning, and building MVPs (Minimally Viable Products).
