Overview
The Stanford Center for Assessment, Learning, and Equity (SCALE) provides technical consulting and support to schools and districts that use performance-based assessment for evaluating student learning and measuring school performance. In partnership with the RAND Corporation, SCALE will develop metrics of deeper learning competencies used when students complete, display, and defend complex projects. This work is based on a pilot that explored how to collect of evidence of student behaviors via materials they post in online learning management systems. Expanding the use of hard-to-measure deeper learning competencies will require evidence of the feasibility and utility of assessments.

for support of a neuroimaging study of racial bias and professional investors
SPARQ, a research center at Stanford University, seeks to reduce societal disparities and social divides using behavioral science. This grant will support research to examine racial diversity in the financial services industry. It is expected that this information will be used to develop strategies and practices to reduce biases that contribute to racial disparities.
