Terracotta currently integrates with the Canvas learning management system (we have plans to build integrations with other LMSs). To get Terracotta activated at your school, you’ll need to ask your local Canvas administrator to hook Terracotta up. If your school asks for contact information, we can be reached at info@terracotta.education. You can also contact us, and we’ll be happy to offer more information.

Informed consent responses are hidden from teachers, and data from non-consenting participants is excluded from result summaries and data exports. Student identifiers are also removed from all data exports.

Classroom innovation is an essential part of professional development for teachers, which allows them to adapt to new curricula, student needs, and other requirements.

We’re working on documentation for processes like creating an experiment, writing and posting an informed consent statement, and exporting experimental data, as well as a data dictionary. While we create it, check out this video, which walks you through the process of building an experiment, and let us know what questions you still have!

To our thinking, Terracotta is a complex innovation that builds on existing technologies, and we’d like others to build on ours. Terracotta is open source -- we want you to play with it, and welcome contributions from interested developers. While we work on our process for contributions, we welcome you to check us out on GitHub and to get in touch.
