How to Design Assessments that Probe for Understanding
The ways that instructors design and use assessments have profound effects on both what students learn and how deeply they learn it. By carefully designing student assessments, both instructors and students can get information to advance student learning.

We partner with MIT educators, staff, and administrators to create a reflective educational environment where students are academically challenged, actively engaged, and personally supported.
