Assess Applied Skills at Scale
Advanced question types that let learners complete authentic tasks in realistic tool environments—not answer questions about tasks. They show, don't tell.
CTE programs, professional certifications, and workforce training all share a common challenge: they teach applied skills, but assessing what learners can actually do has always required human grading—expensive, slow, and inconsistent.
AppliedScoring delivers automatic scoring for performance-based assessments, making it possible to gather evidence of applied competence at scale, with immediate results.
What We Deliver
Our question types don't test whether someone knows what a tool does—they test whether a learner can use it to get the job done. Learners work in realistic environments, completing the same tasks they'll encounter in the workplace: building spreadsheets, constructing diagrams, organizing data, and solving problems with the tools of their trade.
Every question type we build is automatically scored with partial credit and detailed diagnostics—no human grading required.
All question types plug directly into assessment platforms like Learnosity and the QTI/PCI standard. If your platform supports custom interactions, our items work with it.
Automatic Scoring That Works
The hard part isn't building a spreadsheet widget. It's scoring learner responses intelligently:
- Partial credit — Award points for what's correct, not just pass/fail
- Multiple valid approaches — Accept any correct formula, not just the expected one
- Response-level diagnostics — Show exactly where a learner went wrong
This is the capability that enables performance assessment at scale. No more choosing between human grading and multiple-choice proxies.
Built for Your Platform
All question types integrate through industry standards (QTI/PCI) and Learnosity APIs. If your assessment platform supports custom interactions, our items work with it.
