Description

What do we mean when we say Student-Centered Assessment?

Two things: 1) students make important decisions about the nature of assessment and participate in the process;

2) the purpose of assessment is to facilitate student learning.

A group of people sit and face a presenter in a modern, glass-walled room with desktops open. A screen displays "Mutual Innovation." Text reads: From inspiration to innovation: co-design PBL with students for Deeper Learning 2026.
