West Academic Assessment is a school-wide formative assessment offering designed to enrich the learning experience and evaluate student understanding of core concepts as they are learning them in class. It is the most comprehensive product for formative assessment that will help students succeed during all three years of law school.

The platform is well suited for an online environment and is flexible enough to work as well for student self-assessment as it does for faculty who want to monitor student engagement or assign interactive quizzes as part of their syllabus.

West Academic now offers Canvas integration, providing faculty and students simplified access to the multiple-choice quiz questions available in the Assessment platform. In just a few steps, faculty can assign a specific quiz within their course, allowing students to navigate directly to the content without ever leaving their LMS.

ENSURING STUDENT SUCCESS IN THE CLASSROOM IS A MISSION WE SHARE WITH ALL OF YOU

Our reasonably priced subscription option equips every student at your school with a tool that reinforces their learning and helps them succeed. West Academic Assessment includes over 5,000 customizable, formative multiple-choice self-assessment questions that are:
  • Faculty-authored and classroom-tested
  • Keyed to West Academic Publishing and Foundation Press casebooks, or available by subject to work with any casebook
  • Easy to use, with helpful explanations from the Hornbook Series®
  • Available at the chapter/topic level for use during the semester, with subject area review questions for end of semester use
Additional resources will further provide students with meaningful feedback, including:
  • 400+ Grammar and Usage and Legal Citation questions, along with detailed explanations of correct and incorrect answers.
  • Short answer and essay questions, with sample answers and expert commentary, in 1L and select upper-level subjects.
  • A 1L Cumulative tool that measures student learning and retention of first year course material. This set of formative assessment questions, covering six 1L subjects, is designed to be taken at the end of the 1L year or beginning of the 2L year and can be used to identify students who would benefit from academic support.

CUSTOMIZE THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE AND EFFECTIVELY MONITOR STUDENT PERFORMANCE

Flexible, customized reporting for both faculty and administrators helps measure student learning and promote compliance with the ABA Assessment and Learning Outcomes Standards. Administrators may tailor the level of school-wide reporting they wish see while faculty can choose from three customized reporting options. Additionally, faculty have the option to:
  • Customize quiz questions for students
  • Provide materials to students, such as syllabi, additional reading, or problems
  • Incorporate quiz questions into the classroom in a slideshow format with an in-class quiz tool
