Headless Assessment Platform

What is a Headless Assessment Platform?

Assessments are an important part of learning. What often comes as a challenge is the assessment delivery. An engaging assessment can be beyond simply analyzing the theory it can lead to skill development, self-reflection, critical thinking, etc.

This is where assessment platforms come in.

Assessment platforms help in creating assessments easily and also make the entire process intuitive, efficient, and faster. They are designed to deliver online valuations or tests effectively. Just like learning delivery portals, assessment platforms too are created to cater to the increasing volumes, and to improve evaluation models through innovative approach towards grading, ranking system and advanced reporting.

 

Then what exactly is a headless assessment platform?

Headless assessment platform is an assessment engine that decouples the engine’s backend assessment functionality from its appearance layer to offer a seamless, flexible and customizable solution.

In other words, the system separates the frontend that is the content presentation, aka the “head” from the backend, the actual “body” to make enhance efficiency and make integration with other systems faster.

The assessment engine can hence be coupled with the existing learning management systems or other tracking tools to enhance the functionality.

While it contains all the vital functions related to assessment platform and item management, it can also offer a customizable platform that can be integrated seamlessly with any existing system.

 

 

How does a headless assessment engine help you stay ahead?

The perk of having a headless assessment engine is that it allows test creators to leverage a rich set of tools to create and manage all the items/tests securely and deliver it via APIs to multiple frontend applications and systems, such as a web application, mobile app, kiosk, and virtually any digital device.
