Academics & learning
Run assessments with maker-checker rigor, generate NEP-aligned report cards, mark attendance with shortage tracking, and auto-build timetables with live substitution. Teaching tools that respect a teacher’s time.

Inside academics & learning
The real end-to-end flow - from the school's first action to the audited, reason-coded outcome.
- 1Set up the academic frame, then teach against itGrades, sections, subjects, class teachers and terms are defined once in the academic structure, and the timetable is auto-generated as a clash-free draft from teacher availability and room constraints. Homework, lesson content and daily attendance all hang off that same frame, so a class only ever exists in one place.
- 2Capture attendance from whatever the gate actually usesMark attendance by hand or from physical devices - RFID, biometric, face or QR - and Vidyom keeps a running shortage report against a configurable minimum (seeded at the familiar 75%). On-device biometric mode never stores the raw fingerprint or face template, not even as ciphertext; only an opaque device handle is kept.
- 3Enter marks, then have a second pair of hands sign offMarks are entered per assessment; publishing a result runs a maker-checker dual-control check. The person who freezes and publishes must be disjoint from every marks-entry author - a single-hand publish is not silently allowed, it is flagged in the attestation. Optional integrity scans (originality, proctoring, peer review) run on the underlying attempts.
- 4Issue NEP report cards and lifelong creditResults become NEP-aligned Holistic Progress Cards derived from the student’s NEP stage, plus a QR-verifiable public attestation carrying no PII. OMR answer sheets are decoded into marks, and academic credit is computed under the National Credit Framework and stamped to the student’s APAAR account for an Academic Bank of Credits push.
The building blocks
The modules that do the work
The 9 modules that make up academics & learning.
Examination & assessment
Exams, marks, result cards, NEP HPC; OMR decode and NAD / APAAR credit issue.
Gradebook
Consolidated marks and grade views across every assessment.
Assessment engine
Bloom-level, IRT and psychometric assessment models.
Assessment integrity
Proctoring incidents, deterministic originality + AI-content advisory (human-reviewed), peer review.
Attendance management
Daily marking, shortage tracking, biometric / QR.
Timetable & substitution
Auto-generation, conflict detection, live substitution.
Academic calendar & structure
Grades, sections, subjects, class teachers, terms.
Homework & content
Post, submit, grade; deliver lesson content; deterministic plagiarism check.
Behavior & wellbeing
Incidents, merits and wellbeing signals alongside attendance.
Signature automations
What most systems don't do
Built-in mechanics you won't find elsewhere - running in the product, not drawn on a slide.
Results need two hands, not one
Every published result is checked for segregation of duties: the freeze/publish author must be distinct from all marks-entry authors, or the result is attested as single-hand rather than passed silently.
Deterministic originality, advisory AI-content - never an LLM verdict
Attempt originality reuses a pure shingle+Jaccard overlap engine, and a deterministic stylometric heuristic gives an AI-content signal that is advisory and off by default. No LLM, no network, no PII leaves the tenant.
A 75% shortage rule you can actually change
The classic 75% attendance-eligibility bar is a configurable per-school rule (7500 basis points by default) with grace minutes and an exam-eligibility gate, and breaches are captured as reason-coded, immutable snapshots.
Timetables that optimise for the fairness they are later judged on
Auto-generation produces a clash-free draft from constraints, and it optimises for the same teacher-load fairness model the substitution rotation is scored against later, with all ids de-identified in process.

Capabilities that already ship in the product - each shown live, not just named.
Live / online classes
Teach live, attendance captures itself
Run a real video class inside Vidyom - students join, hands go up, and every join is auto-marked present.
- Teacher-led live video with a full class grid
- Attendance auto-captured as students join
- Raise-hand + saved recordings for anyone who missed it
Universal scanner
Any staff phone becomes a scanner
Point the Vidyom app at an OMR sheet, a document, an ID card or a QR code. The capture is auto-processed on the spot — marks decoded, files uploaded — with no extra hardware and no PII leaving the school.
- OMR answer sheets decoded in-camera, class after class
- One tool for docs, ID cards and QR — nothing extra to buy
- Auto-processed and filed the moment the reticle locks
Straight answers
Academics & learning - common questions
Is the gradebook where teachers enter marks?
No. The gradebook is a set of read-only consolidated views - grade and proficiency roll-ups across assessments. Actual marks entry, freeze and publish live in the examination & assessment module, behind the maker-checker dual-control check.
What does the assessment engine actually do?
It is the psychometric layer - Bloom-level blueprinting for paper assembly and item-response / psychometric models - not a formative-vs-summative workflow. It shapes how a paper is built and analysed, not the day-to-day marking flow.
Does the AI-content check decide whether a student cheated?
No. The AI-content signal is a deterministic stylometric heuristic that is off by default and only advisory when on. It flags text for a human to review; it never auto-penalises, never calls an LLM, and never sends student text off the tenant.
