Learning assessment and evaluation at Stanford

Welcome to Stanford’s learning assessment and evaluation website, the University’s location for academic assessment and evaluation-related information. The purpose of the website is to provide faculty and staff with the tools and information necessary to conduct effective assessment and evaluation studies. The site is a work in progress as we continue to grow.

Material posted here provides the basics on planning, implementation, assessment methodology, and closing the loop. Examples of assessment plans from other universities, sample templates for generating plans and reports, and exercises for developing learning outcomes and grading rubrics are provided. You will also find some useful internet resources. If you are looking for general information on conducting surveys, this is available on our survey research page.

Again, we thank you for visiting our site. If there is any way we can assist you, please feel free to contact us at any time.
