Mega Menu
Mega Menu
The Power Path Mega Menu is designed to help students reach the content they need faster than ever before. Forget wasted class time trying to guide students to the correct icons! The Power Path Mega Menu is simplified, streamlined, and subscription-based all while encouraging students to explore, discover, and take ownership of learning.
Managed Choice
Managed Choice
The Power Path is built on the principle of managed choice. We want to give students a "right for me" learning experience designed for each unique user. Students will have access to the content most important to them first, while having opportunities to explore additional Power Path features as appropriate.
Traditional Path to ISIP
Traditional Path to ISIP
Power Path users will use the same initial step for accessing their ISIP assessments and instructional content (if applicable) as they do in the classic version of Istation. This should make this new experience an easy transition for most users.

Product Submenus
Product Submenus
Once students have selected a product from the Mega Menu, they are directed to product-specific submenus. These product submenus display options most relevant to the user based on their subscription and grade level.
ISIP only students will have access to products intended for ISIP-only users, such as the ISIP assessment and ISIP modeling.
ISIP & Instruction students will have access to products intended for ISIP & Instruction users, such as assignments, Ipractice, and Writing Rules! These options will depend on the student subscription and grade level, as well as their location when using the program.
Prioritized Content
Prioritized Content
Product Submenus will always prioritize ISIP if it’s due. In cases where students have an assessment to complete, the only available option on these submenus will be ISIP until completed. This ensures that all users due for ISIP assessments are directed there before gaining access to other content. Similarly, when teachers create assignments, the product submenu will prompt students and provide an indicator that an assignment exists.
School to Home Connection

Eligible students will still have access to Istation at home through Ipractice. Ipractice gives students the opportunity to create their own interactive learning experience by interacting with the same content they know from the classroom.

ISIP & Instruction students will always default to ISIP when an assessment is due. The Power Path only displays the 'Activities' icon once students have completed their required assessments. Otherwise, the 'Activities' icon is replaced with the 'ISIP' icon on the product submenu.
ISIP-only students will always see the option for ISIP along with ISIP modeling (where applicable).
