Company Overview

Established in 2000 as a for-profit company by Vanderbilt University, ThinkLink Learning has been determinedly focused on the use of formative assessment to improve K-12 student learning and performance. The underlying mission of the company is to bridge the gap from university research to classroom practice. ThinkLink cultivates its close relationship with Vanderbilt University to remain at the forefront of educational research and practice.
 

ThinkLink has pioneered a unique approach to formative assessments using a scientifically research-based continuous improvement model that maps diagnostic assessments to each state’s high stakes test. ThinkLink Learning’s Predictive Assessment Series assesses student progress toward meeting state standards for reading/ language arts, math, science, and social studies. The tests are preconfigured and analyzed by ThinkLink experts to provide teachers the prediction of mastery, proficiency, and adequate yearly progress (AYP) that is so critical to monitoring student progress toward state mandated goals. The benchmark tests are administered in the fall, winter, and spring. Each test is carefully constructed to mirror and match the state test.
