Putting Assessment to the Test: What’s Next for K–12 Assessment in an AI World
from ASU+GSV Summit Sessions · host ASU+GSV
Recorded live at the 2026 ASU+GSV Summit in San Diego, this session featured Gavin Cooney, Founder & CEO at Learnosity; Dr. Kristen DiCerbo, Chief Learning Officer at Khan Academy; Dr. Patrick Gittisriboongul, Superintendent at Lynwood Unified School District; Steve Kromer, President at Cambium Assessment, a Cambium Learning Group brand; and Dr. Korah Wiley, Senior Director of EdTech R&D at Digital Promise Global.The speakers discussed how AI is fundamentally reshaping how learning is defined and measured. They explored how emerging technologies make it possible to analyze not only what students know, but how they think, create, and problem-solve—challenging long-standing models of assessment.The panel examined how multimodal signals such as speech, sketching, and written reasoning can provide richer insights into learning processes over time, and how new tools can move assessment beyond a single moment or score. The session also considered what it looks like when assessment becomes more continuous, contextual, and personalized, while emphasizing the importance of ensuring these innovations remain valid, equitable, and instructionally meaningful at scale.
