Learner assessment is an important part of a learning support system. Students are often evaluated both by the institution and by the learning support center. Institutional assessment seems more concerned with predicting academic success and with placement in English, math, and developmental skills courses. Learning Support Center assessment, however, is concerned with learning skills and strategies, learning styles, and student competency in reading, math, critical thinking, and writing so as to assist students to develop increased proficiency in these areas. This resource looks at both institutional and learning support center assessment as it lists relevant citations and reviews testing and survey instruments:
