What is adaptive assessment?
Adaptive assessments use interactive content to evaluate a student’s learning and skill development. To identify a child’s level of mastery, the difficulty of content presented to each student changes with every response he or she makes. If a child is answering questions correctly, the CPAA presents more challenging content until the child either shows mastery or gives an incorrect answer. When a child answers a question incorrectly, the question is posed another way, offering the child a second chance to choose the correct answer.
