Learner-Centered Instruction and Assessment

Foster Deeper Learning and Student Growth.

Students crave more than surface-level education and standardized tests—they thrive when instruction is meaningful, assessments are purposeful, and learning connects to their own interests and aspirations.

NTN’s Learner-Centered Instruction & Assessment Pathway helps schools foster deep understanding, encourage complex thinking, and create a culture of growth. Through active, collaborative learning, educators gain the tools to build engaging instruction and assessment that inspire—not discourage—students.
