Student engagement
We help schools create a culture where all students are invested in their own learning and understand how lessons apply to life outside the classroom. By working with their teachers to set goals and track progress, students are empowered to approach learning with a sense of motivation and accomplishment.
Meaningful learning
Instead of simply memorizing information, students are given the time, support, and resources they need to master new material and apply what they've learned before moving on. Teachers see the day-to-day progress of each student, enabling them to meet students where they need support and help students advance quickly where they are most engaged. This approach ensures students don't fall through the cracks.
Strong relationships
The dynamic relationships between teachers and students are the heart of every Summit Learning classroom. In addition to the individualized and small group instruction students receive in the classroom, every student also has a teacher who serves as a mentor and meets with them weekly to discuss goals, motivations and challenges. The real connections formed between students and teachers support confidence and deeper learning.

Don't Know Which Tool to Use? Look Through our Introductory Resources
- Assessment and Active Learning Strategies for Introductory Geology Courses(Acrobat (PDF) 390kB Mar8 05), David McConnell, David Steer, Kathie Owens, 2003, Journal of Geoscience Education, v. 51, n. 2, March, 2003, p. 205-216, is a good, concise, introduction to assessment techniques.
- Primer on Assessment in the Geosciences is an in depth introduction to assessment created for faculty teaching introductory courses.
- OERL: Online Evaluation Resource Library website designed for professionals working on project evaluations.
- The Center for Technology in Learning at SRI International has conducted a number of projects creating assessment designs and examples for middle and high school students that are relevant to the geosciences, including:
- PALS (more info) is an on-line, standards-based, continually updated resource bank of science performance assessment tasks indexed via the National Science Education Standards (NSES) and various other standards frameworks.
- PALM' is currently being developed as an on-line, standards-based, resource bank of mathematics performance assessment tasks indexed via the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM).
- Integrative Performance Assessments in Technology (IPAT) is a site developed for middle or high school teachers, school administrators, or evaluators who are interested in assessing how proficient students are using computer-based technology to carry out Information and Communications Technology (ICT). The site provides five pilot-tested assessment tasks: Car Crash, Solar Power, Choose a City, EPA Phoenix, and Predator-Prey.
- Global Learning Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) includes classroom assessment tools that test students' deep understanding of GLOBE concepts and their ability to conduct and interpret GLOBE environmental investigations, set up for middle and high school teachers. The examples related to a number of educational standards.
