Measurement and Assessment Tools
Assessment plays a critical role in the online learning process. Learning Environment includes an unparalleled suite of measurement and assessment tools to evaluate outcomes and perform formative and summative evaluations of the effectiveness of instructional programs.
Rubrics
Rubrics enable our clients' organizations to define transparent assessment criteria and create structured feedback. Rubrics are created manually or automatically to evaluate academic performance on activities. This is conducted through a variety of course tools including quizzes, dropbox assignments, and discussions.

User Progress and Attendance
The user progress tool acts as an all-in-one view of all interactions our clients' users have with a course. Progress reports are easily created and shared with users and parents. Usage patterns help our clients compare the progress of a specific user to that of their peers. This also allows for users to see how they stack up against the rest of their class.

Quizzes
Our robust quizzing tool includes a complete toolkit of question styles that can be adapted to any pedagogy. Questions can be created with varying difficulty and randomized within a quiz.

Self-assessments support the full range of questions available in quizzes and can be quickly assembled by reusing questions from the consolidated question library shared with the quizzing tool.
