What DYSPTCH does
Pitch, assign, and route stories through copy, art, and editor-in-chief approval gates.
Rubric scores + peer and leadership evaluations fold into a recommended grade — teacher override always available.
Public event feed for staff, subscribable by .ics for Google, Outlook, and Apple.
Photographers and reporters claim events and drop deliverables where editors expect them.
Require verified Mass Media badges before students can be assigned photographer, reporter, or editor roles.
Per-student, per-assignment scores by class, issue, or timeframe — CSV ready for your SIS.
Built for scholastic media
Stop grading vibes. Stand behind every score with a paper trail from pitch to publish.
Route work through approval gates and get credit for the leadership you actually provided.
See exactly what's expected, submit deliverables, and reflect on your own work.
Role-based access, verified skill prerequisites, and equitable grade documentation.
Works with SkillTrei
DYSPTCH reads SkillTrei Mass Media badges from a student's wallet key and gates production roles behind them. Require a Photojournalism Level 2 badge before a student shoots a football game. Require an Interviewing badge before assigning a feature reporter. Leadership can override with a documented reason — but the requirement stays visible.

Push assignments to a class broadcast rundown — segment status stays in sync.

Common questions
No — DYSPTCH generates a defensible recommended grade with full evidence, then exports to CSV that drops into your existing SIS gradebook.
Every recommendation has a teacher override. The rubric evidence, peer scores, and leadership evaluations all stay attached for documentation.
Only if you want badge-gated role assignments. Students paste one wallet key to sync earned Mass Media badges. Programs can also run without gating.
Yes — that's the recommended path. We set up one class, one rubric, one issue cycle, and prove the grades hold up before scaling.
