About Us

Hi:

My Dad and I started the K-12 Assessment Center web site while I was in the fourth grade. Over the years, we have continued to expand the the site with the goal of having a wide variety of assessment quizzes and subject turorials for the K-12 school years. I hope you find it helpful in your educational process. ----Brian Doyle, President ----

The K-12 Assessment Center is a non-profit charitable 501 (c) (3) corporation that provides K-12 course assessments and sponsors research about how to effectively use the Internet as a learning resource. As part of that effort, we have established this Internet site that will offer on-line assessments and remedial lessons for the K-12 levels of education.

On the site we offer many opportunities to:

Students:

  • Take assessments.
  • Take reviews that are imbedded in the assessments.
  • Receive immediate feedback about your mastery of the subjects.

Parents:

  • Review existing assessments and recommend them to your children.
  • Monitor your child’s progress in subject areas.

Teachers:

  • Review existing assessments and recommend them to your students.
  • Incorporate assessments into your curricula.

Remember, in the world of learning, the best environment is to have a great teacher and to be with a group of participating students. We are here to help that process.

Mission

Effective learning is not just about the efficient transfer of certain quantities of knowledge, but it is also about developing skills and attitudes for life-long-learning,  about effective assessment and remedial processes, about experiencing the joy of learning, and about both factual knowledge and developing good judgment. Internet-based electronic learning provides the education community a powerful new tool for successful education programs with these qualities. The K-12 Assessment Center, Inc. will foster a community of educators and their sponsors to accelerate the development and integration of effective e-learning programs into the standard educational process.

To do this, the Center will sponsor and publish research to establish:

·  The effectiveness of the Internet for teaching and assessment;

·  The features of Internet content that produce the best results from teaching and assessment;

·  A set of benchmark criteria to be used to evaluate Internet-based learning curriculum, courses, course creation software, knowledge assessments, neurodevelopment systems assessments, and educational institutions offering Internet-based learning programs;

To complete its mission, the Center will engage in activities that will produce:

·  A variety of demonstration Internet assessments and remedial lessons for different subject matter and grade levels;

·  Demonstrations of remedial programs for courses and developmental systems.

·  A variety of demonstrations of e-learning constructivism projects.

·  Evaluation services that will evaluate e-learning curricula, courses, lesson plans, assessments, and Internet educational software including:

· Course creation software

· Course management software

· Assessment and testing software

· Constructivism project creation software

· The K12 Assessment Center web site, k12assesssmentcenter.org, will publish research project results; demonstration ‘on-line’ schools; demonstration courses, lesson plans, assessments and tests; demonstration constructivism projects; and e-learning site evaluations.

Scope: K-12 education.

Stakeholders: schools, students, teachers, parents, administrators, education teaching institutions, education vendors, and education research sponsors.
