My Take
I like the tool for my personal use but not for the students to use because they weren't very interested in it. It good for teachers because the standards are right at you finger tips.
How I Use It
I used this product in writing my lesson plans. It worked because it explained what the students would be engaged in during the lesson. I allowed the students to view the standards to get an understanding of what they were to do.

New Standards? No Problem!
The app is great. Nothing too fancy - but fancy isn't necessary here. Just clear, simple and easy to use. Like to be able to pull up the wording when meeting in a teacher team, or updating our ARIS websites. Might be useful to share with parents who are eager to learn about the CCSS.
