Sapphire FX Classroom Observation Software

Measurements performed by The Standards Company LLC are founded on precision. To maximize precision when we perform Sapphire classroom observations, we developed specialty software specifically designed to:

1. Time important instructional processes
2. Measure the use of research-based teaching strategies

Designed primarily for ease of use, our Sapphire FX software employs real-time charting and quantitative measurements to serve as a platform for a host of custom measurements.

For those wanting to measure time usage in classrooms, we have made the Community Edition version of our Sapphire FX software available for a free download. You can read more about the Sapphire FX software in the Help Manual.
