The myANet platform helps you build expertise and opinions through data-driven instruction, giving you actionable data to incorporate in your planning.

Assessments should drive action for teachers - that's why we design ours to make teaching and learning easier. Our Analysis Guides offer clear explanations of why each student may have chosen an incorrect assessment answer, so you know how to adjust instruction to address their misconception. And our Quiz Tool lets you create individualized checks for understanding that you can implement exactly when needed.

Use the Standards Tab on our myANet platform to unpack the standards alongside sample lessons and items, vertical progressions and additional resources to help you plan. Looking to better understand how to support older struggling readers? Or students with learning and thinking differences? Our curated resources on special topics and online courses will help you build the expertise you need to best support every student.
The importance of empowering teachers
Supporting Teacher Agency
Teachers are the primary users of our resources, so we make sure our tools are tailored to them.
Empowering teachers
Educators who devote their professional lives to empowering young people deserve support that empowers them. Our job as partners is to assist each educator's desire to do what's best for students by equipping them with the tools, empowering them with insights and accelerating their work through high quality coaching. Creating authentically empowering learning environments revolves around supporting student and teacher agency.

Instructional Support for Every Student
Our tools and techniques work as well as they do because they're critically supported by our coaches. All former teachers and school leaders, our coaches, and our team of research specialists combine their extensive experience of instructional best practices with the most up-to-date research to curate resources that support teachers in meeting the needs of every student.

ANet’s Virtual Learning Modules are quick (30-45 dedicated minutes) online courses designed to support you on high-impact topics across math, literacy, and learning differences. They are aimed at helping you tackle foundational topics first, such as Building World Knowledge and Analyzing Student work in Math and increasingly specialized topics like Juicy Sentences and supporting students with Dyslexia.

ANet has been on a long journey toward achieving equitable instruction for all students. As an organization, we are redefining what it means to live out these definitions and identify places to disrupt inequities. Our EI resources support teachers and leaders in integrating an equity lens into their schools and classrooms.
Access Equitable Instruction resources -
We know how important it is for educators to work collaboratively, especially when it comes to focusing on their Multilingual Learner (MLL), or English Language Learner (ELL) population. Here at ANet we’re also learning and thinking about how to advocate for social justice and civil rights in light of an increasing cultural and linguistic diversity in the schools we serve. These resources are a starting point for building a toolkit of holistic and equitable student support.
Access Multilingual Learner resources -
According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), 64% of 12th grade students graduate without achieving proficiency in reading (NCES, 2019). This statistic is particularly concerning when considering that it doesn't account for the approximately 2 million students who drop out of high school annually (NCES, 2023). If our goal is to equip students for success in college, career, and life, it is imperative that they exit school as literate individuals.
Is it too late to intervene and support these older struggling readers? We don't think so.
Access support for these students -
Did you know that students with diagnosed learning and thinking differences make up 5% of the U.S. student population? Also, an additional 15% of the student population has significant learning differences but has not been formally identified or diagnosed. Our work at ANet is to help educators shift their mindsets from a deficit view to an assets-based view, and develop the skills and knowledge necessary to maintain high expectations for all students, including those with learning and thinking differences.
Access resources to support these students -
Social-emotional learning (SEL) is an umbrella term that refers to the wide array of skills and mindsets that include, but are not limited to, self-awareness, relationship building, goal setting, conflict resolution, and community building. This work is a component of a whole child approach, honoring the humanity of educators and students alike, and creating environments of belonging and connection. ANet supports educators with their own SEL journey as well as helps to ensure academic conditions are built in a way that allows students to thrive.
