Assessment and Evaluation Group (AEG) faculty members and graduate students engage in collaborative research in assessment, evaluation, measurement, and knowledge mobilization. AEG operates in many educational contexts, with a wide variety of stakeholders, using multiple and mixed methods of inquiry. We operate from the premise that high-quality assessment and evaluation is the foundation for meaningful evidence-informed decision-making.

AEG was established in 2002 and continues to use a mentorship model of scholarly development. Projects are conducted with the goal of contributing to and disseminating new knowledge while building the practical and research capacities of graduate students through internship opportunities. All our inquiry is directed at promoting learning and improving educational programs.

AEG offers courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels, including a PhD in Education program with a concentration in Assessment and Evaluation.

AEG provides consulting services in the following areas:

  • Assessment Practices: build instruments; analyze test data; advise educational organizations on assessment programs.
  • Classroom Practices: support collaborative professional learning; integrate assessment into teaching and learning.
  • Program Evaluation: program development; program improvement; program review.
