Between what a student is taught and what they actually understand sits a space no score report is built to show. 6i Lens makes that space visible, names what caused it, and hands you the move that closes it.
One method, running across the whole school day, from the diagnostic to the door.
6i Lens takes the work students already do and hands back the standard, the item, and the specific misconception behind a wrong answer. It reads two scores where most reports read one: what a student can pick off a multiple-choice list, and what the same student can build from scratch. On 6.EE.7, 66% of sixth graders pick the right equation and 31% can write one. That 35-point drop is the part a proficiency band hides. From there the same diagnosis follows the student through the day, into practice with a tutor that asks for their reasoning instead of handing over the answer, and into the schedule, the attendance, and the walkthrough.

On 6.EE.7, 66% of sixth graders pick the correct equation off a multiple-choice list. Only 31% can write one from a story. That 35-point drop is the largest constructed-response gap in sixth grade, and it never shows up on a proficiency report. Move the lens across the panel below.

About these numbers. The flagged cell, 6.EE.7, carries the 6i canonical sixth-grade figure: 66% on multiple choice against 31% on constructed response. The seven cells around it are sample values, there to build the wall a score report actually hands you.
Most students don't struggle because they can't do the work. They come apart at a specific point where content meets concept. The three moves below find that point, act on it, and keep it from reopening.
You get the standard, the item, and the specific misconception behind a wrong answer, instead of a grade-level label you can't teach from.
The canonical strategy, the bridge, the manipulative, matched to the break you just found. Students meet it as an AI tutor that will not hand over the answer and asks for their reasoning instead, so practice produces the very thinking the diagnostic reads.
The practice and the tools run off the same method, so a fix made in October still holds in May, across a classroom, a grade, and a school.
The same diagnostic data answers three different first questions, depending on where you sit: the district office, the building, or the room itself.
One diagnosis rolls up from item to classroom to school to district, so a curriculum decision rests on where students actually break, not on a proficiency band.
Rounds and the diagnostic data share one method, so a walkthrough finds the same gap a test already flagged, instead of two separate stories about the same classroom.
A wrong answer comes back with the standard, the misconception, and the strategy that closes it, so a Tuesday planning period is spent teaching, not decoding a report.
Every p-value and every flagged misconception traces back to a released item or a documented classroom pattern. The 6.EE.7 gap above is the canonical example, not an outlier picked because it looks dramatic.
A wrong answer isn't just marked wrong. It maps to a documented misconception, so "reteach fractions" becomes the exact breakdown behind this student's answer on this standard.
Every framework here, Diagnose, Develop, Sustain, was worked out with real students and real state data before any of it became software.
No. It sits alongside what you already run. The diagnostic finds the exact standard and misconception behind a score; your curriculum and your benchmark stay in place. 6i Lens tells you where to aim them.
Most screeners hand back a proficiency band. 6i Lens hands back the standard, the item, and the specific misconception, and it distinguishes a multiple-choice score from a constructed-response one. That gap, not the average, is usually where the real problem lives.
Every 6i Lens app runs against a written privacy policy, FERPA notice, and data privacy agreement template, published in full and outside any login wall. Read the Privacy Policy, the FERPA Notice, or the full set at diagnostics.6i-lens.com/legal before you sign anything.
Pricing is scoped to the grade bands and schools you're bringing in, not a flat rate. Start a conversation and we'll work out a number together.
There's no fixed rollout script. A conversation figures out which app you start with, which grade bands come first, and what your calendar can actually hold, before anything gets scheduled.
Start with the diagnostic, add the moves that act on what it finds, then the systems that keep the gains from slipping. Write to us and we'll work out where your school begins.
