The RAND Education Assessment Finder is a web-based tool that provides information about assessments of K–12 students' interpersonal, intrapersonal, and higher-order cognitive competencies. Practitioners, researchers, and policymakers can use it to explore what assessments are available, what they are designed to measure, how they are administered, what demands they place on students and teachers, and what kinds of uses their scores support. It also provides links to additional resources including guidance to help practitioners use assessments effectively.
The research described in this report was sponsored by the Funders' Collaborative for Innovative Measurement and conducted by RAND Education.
