Synopsis

Your guide to how a premier engineering school uses tests to shape students and courses

This issue explores a comprehensive testing program used by Illinois Institute of Technology to learn about its students. It shows how tests help place freshmen, tailor courses, and improve teaching across disciplines.

The piece details how testing has evolved from early methods to modern machine scoring. It explains how the tests cover thinking skills, reading, math, chemistry, and general knowledge. It also highlights the practical benefits of data gathered early in the term to support students who need extra help.


  • Eight-part battery of tests, including psychological, reading, math, and science measures.

  • Use of machines to score hundreds of answers in seconds, speeding feedback.
