# Use cases

> Common Knowledge Graph use cases: align content to standards and curriculum, plan instructional content, compare standards across states, and deliver personalized assessments.

export const GatedBadge = ({size = "md", children}) => {
  return <Badge color="orange" size={size} icon="lock">
      {children == null || children === "" ? "Gated" : typeof children === "string" ? children.trim() : children}
    </Badge>;
};

These are several common ways that edtech teams use Knowledge Graph data in product development and instructional workflows.

| **Align content to standards**                 | Create content rooted in [Academic Standards](/knowledge-graph/graph-reference/academic-standards) and learner competencies across subjects.                                                                                                    | Replace fragmented infrastructure with a single, trusted source of standards data: <ul><li>Populate a standards menu (i.e., 50 states across subjects)</li><li>Use standards as context when generating AI outputs</li><li>Integrate standards data with your CMS</li></ul>                                                                                                                  |
| **Plan instructional content**                 | Use dependencies ([Learning Progressions](/knowledge-graph/graph-reference/learning-progressions)) and granular skills ([Learning Components](/knowledge-graph/graph-reference/learning-components)) to inform instructional content and plans. | <ul><li>Group students more effectively by looking at the skills they've mastered</li><li>Give each student their own instance of a knowledge model graph, with a score for each node (Learning Component)</li><li>Build a teachers dashboard that gives grounded AI recommendations on lesson plans and identifies gaps in prerequisite skills</li><li>Give more precise feedback</li></ul> |
| **Compare standards across states**            | Use [Standards Crosswalks](/knowledge-graph/graph-reference/standards-crosswalks) to adapt content aligned to one state standard to other states'.                                                                                              | Outsource the burden of managing standards across states: <ul><li>Align content across all states you serve</li><li>Reduce maintenance burden on internal systems</li><li>Share content across state lines with automatic remapping to local standards</li></ul>                                                                                                                             |
