Areas of Expertise

Our international team of education experts have developed high quality assessment instruments that not only provide information on student achievement, but assess higher-order thinking skills using cognitive measures such as Norman Webb’s Depth of Knowledge (DOK). This experience includes

• item and test development
• content and editorial review
• measurement and psychometrics
• committee facilitation
• administration
• scoring and reporting
• project and account management

Canadian and American institutions like the Council of Ministers of Education of Canada (CMEC), Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO) in Ontario, Canada, the University of North Texas (UNT) and Project Lead The Way (PLTW) have used these services.  We also have expertise in developing educational assessments and products for many K-12 programs for states such as New Jersey, Georgia, Ohio, Mississippi, Texas, Florida, West Virginia, Wyoming, Washington, and Hawaii.

DGC and associates have also been involved in developing, reviewing and scoring international assessments such as Trends in International Mathematics and Science Studies (TIMSS), the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) and the Program for International Reading Literacy Studies (PIRLS).
