NGSTUDENT LEARNING MODEL

1. Diagnostic Test

• Courses

• Lessons

• Videos

• Quizzes

• Domain Tests

4. Test Preparation Skills Development

Students start with a diagnostic test, allowing accurate assessment of current content knowledge

Based on result of the diagnostic test, a set of learning materials is made available to the student, with domain tests used to assess knowledge retention

Upon completion of the materials in the Learning Center, students are tested again with two Benchmark tests. The results of the benchmark tests are then compared to the result of the diagnostic test to show student knowledge growth
