Open Assessment Technologies Testimonials

“The beauty of TAO is the inherent adaptability of its myriad features. Our students had a coherent user experience, despite the reality that we used three different systems. From lesson content to item authoring to test delivery, we were able to rely on TAO for its fluid interoperability and integration. After conducting a broad search, we remain unaware of any platforms other than TAO that can offer this level of usability, flexibility, and freedom through QTI compliance and Open Source.”

“It makes perfect sense to further leverage TAO for the language proficiency exams as it allows multimedia and can potentially eliminate the need for live speakers for the administration of the listening component. It’s the ideal solution to this logistical nightmare. Now that we know that online administration works for us, the plan is to leverage the audio recording Portable Custom Interaction (PCI) feature for the listening component. We look forward to putting the entire Spanish LOTE exam online next year and rolling it out to multiple schools.”
