Assessdo appraisals are designed around five core social and emotional learning competencies.
Providing students and teachers with opportunities to reflect on their own development and provide evaluators with insights into strengths and challenges, Assessdo’s tools provide the framework to help cultivate skills and environments that advance students’ learning and development.
Self-Awareness
Includes how we identify and process our emotions and reflect on our own strengths and identities.
Self-Management
Includes how we set goals, manage stress, and demonstrate resilience
Social Awareness
Includes the ability to empathize and take the perspectives of others from similar and diverse backgrounds.
Relationship Skills
Includes establishing and maintaining healthy relationships and collaboratively finding solutions to challenges.
Decision-Making
Includes analyzing situations, solving problems, and making decisions that promote collective well-being.
Assessdo Uses Effective Evidence-Based Tools & Practices
Assessdo’s assessment tools are a replication of a nationally normed study that is validated with the highest levels of reliability. Our proposed computer adaptive assessment platform is nationally normed and validated with the highest levels of validity and reliability, and provides a measure of growth over time.
CASEL Framework
Our measurement tools are based on the CASEL 5 crucial domains (Self-Awareness, Self-Management, Decision Making, Social-Awareness, and Relationship Skills).
Formative Measurements
The results from our formative measurements provide deeper, more interpretive solutions to the five domains of SEL as required by school districts.
Industry Standard Tools
The Assessdo SEL platform uses industry standard psychometric tools to provide data that is reliable and valid according to test measures.
Qualitative Assessing
Our assessment module’s validity measures student SEL emotions for formative purposes using quantitative data through qualitative assessing.
Quantitative Approach
Assessdo uses a quantitative approach designed to convert student emotions by encouraging students to describe their emotions in such a way that the system can instantaneously gauge without a loss of representation in the quality of data, a student’s thoughts and emotions.
Geneva Appraisal Method
Many of the Assessdo tools are aligned with the Geneva Appraisal Method which is one of the prominent methods in capturing Emotion. The Geneva Appraisal Method also lends findings related to the social context of the emotional experience and the event, as well as questions on intensity, duration, and regulation of the emotional experience.
