Assessment Commons

Assessment Commons is dedicated to providing a comprehensive library of resources related to the assessment of learning in higher education.  We are sponsored by the Association for the Assessment of Learning in Higher Education (AALHE).  See the AALHE Website (link opens in new window) for more information about our organization.  

Our mission

AALHE is the national membership community of assessment professionals who promote, advocate for, inform, and lead ethical and equity-minded assessment practices in higher education. The Association serves as a central assessment resource that empowers our members to cultivate and improve student learning and institutional quality. Assessment Commons is part of that overall mission.

Our goals

We strive to curate a user-friendly space that connects users with relevant resources. By organizing our library by topics and key words, we hope to facilitate the discovery of useful resources to enhance assessment practices and to support institutional improvement.

What we offer

Our platform brings together a diverse range of materials, from research articles to practical tools, ensuring educators have access to necessary guidance and best practices in assessment.
