Recommend an Assessment

The Learning Assistant Alliance (LAA) welcomes recommendations for new assessments to be added to the LASSO platform. On a monthly basis, the LAA Research Team will evaluate the requested assessment based on three criteria: the community's need for the assessment, the published validity arguments for the assessment, and the difficulty of implementing the assessment in LASSO. The Research Team will provide a summary of their evaluation and the priority for adding the assessment to the Leadership Council. The Leadership Council will review the evaluation and provide feedback to the Research Team. The Research Team will let the individual requesting know the final decision for the instrument and an estimated timeline for adding it to the LASSO platform.
