Too often, national benchmarks test only a generic set of skills, and don’t focus on mastery of standards-based instruction. CASE Benchmark Assessments mirror state assessments and provide actionable data to guide instruction.
Assessment analytics enable teachers to review student performance on benchmark assessments at a granular level, so they can identify gaps quickly and guide interventions.
CASE Benchmark Assessments
Our CASE Benchmark Assessments follow states’ assessment blueprints, so measurements are highly correlated with summative outcomes, and are customized to match each district’s scope and sequence. The result is highly actionable classroom data that reflects your students’ mastery of state learning standards.
