Discover how the Lithuanian Ministry of Education made the transition from paper-based testing to digital assessment — from piloting with TAO’s open source Core solution, to developing their testing campaigns in full with TAO Enterprise.

Digital assessments can equip students to perform their best in complex disciplinary fields and progress with confidence as lifelong learners. Unlike paper-based testing, digital assessments can deliver individual and organization-wide benefits, such as interactive learning experiences and actionable data insights, without adding to the burden on school or university staff. However, with many vendors offering various types of assessment tools for K-12, universities and credentialing programs, it can be difficult to determine which technology will reap the best results for your institution. In this eBook, we’ve laid out the blueprint for selecting a digital assessment platform that not only smoothly integrates into your existing systems, but enables you to do more in the classroom and organization-wide.
From open source to a highly customized and deeply integrated online assessment solution, TAO gives you the freedom and control to easily launch your digital assessment programs, and manage and scale them with confidence. Find out how TAO helps you eliminate proprietary data silos, control your assessment programs and reduce your total cost of software ownership in a single secure solution.
In 2020, as COVID-19 has upended traditional education across the world, many US K12 education leaders are finding themselves navigating uncharted territory as they’re planning for the “new normal” in learning and assessment. With new and changing government requirements dictated almost daily at the district, state and federal levels, and a lack of conformity between how districts are handling student testing during this time, a number of questions and challenges arise. Find out how Cognia™ and the TAO team are working together to support states across the US in the wake of testing disruption due to COVID and how they are developing contingency plans for moving forward in this uncertain time.
