Assess.ai: Finalist in 2021 EdTech Awards

Assess.ai named as a Finalist in the 2021 EdTech Awards

We are proud to announce that ASC’s next-generation platform, Assess.ai, was recently announced as a Finalist for the 2021 EdTech Awards. This follows the successful launch of the landmark platform in 2020, where it quickly garnered attention as a finalist for the Innovation award at the 2020 conference of the Association of Test Publishers.

What is Assess.ai?

Assess.ai brings together best practices in assessment with modern approaches to automation, AI, and software design. It is built to make it easier to develop high-quality assessments with automated item review and automated item generation, and deliver with advanced psychometrics like adaptive and multistage testing.

An example of this approach is shown below; a modern UI/UX presents a visual platform for publishing MultiStage Tests based on information functions from item response theory (IRT). Users can easily publish tests with this modern AI-based approach, without having to write a single line of code.
