The Evolution of Testing

Analysis. What Ms. Hernandez and her committee were doing was nothing more than exercising instructional leadership. What made their efforts particularly effective was using the Achievement Series. They were able to collaborate, to create pinpointed formative assessment, analyze results, and make instructional decisions based upon solid data. Teachers were able to focus their instructional efforts on specific students and their documented needs.

The Future

In looking ahead, Scantron will continue to respond to the needs of educators. We will be adding more publishers’ items to our standards-aligned test item bank. We will add the capability to create and score short-answer items. And we will continue to listen to you, the educators, to create products and services to make your life better and to help your students succeed.
