Another Simplex Learning product

Tennessee Educators,

We are aware of how important the State Assessed Standards have become. We decided to create software that schools can use FREE of charge for managing these standards. It is our intention to deliver an easy-to-use standards pacing application that works entirely over the Internet.

StandardsRx provides a simple method for creating pacing guides. Our service will allow you to create pacing guides using TN standards with point-and-click functionality. In other words, pacing guides will take minutes to create and will be shared with your school system instantly over the Internet. All pacing guides can be saved in Microsoft™ Word™ or Excel™ format.

Enjoy our product. We always welcome feedback.

How can we provide this free service?

We use rapid application development techniques that allow us to create software very quickly. In fact, we built StandardsRx using an off-the-shelf development framework. This allows us to limit the number of programmers involved. We gladly donate endless hours of development time to this project.

Why are we providing free software?

  1. We believe helping TN schools is important. We take pride in offering a free tool that can be used instantly to organize and create pacing guides.

  2. We think you will enjoy StandardsRx so much you will want to learn more about the other products and services we provide.
