Assessments: Item Development

Anaxos works with major national test developers and state agencies to create multiple-choice and free-response items, writing prompts, reading passages, and ancillaries for standardized tests.

Content Expertise Our item writers are that rare combination all test publishers seek: people with both teaching and writing experience. We have spent years training and refining our writers' item development skills. The effort shows in our work.

Grade-Level Sensitivity The fine gradations of vocabulary and skill-level that separate K-12 grades are lost on many, but not us. You can count on Anaxos to hit the grade-level targets exactly.

The Arcana of Test Development Standarized tests are our bread and butter. We have spent the past fifteen years analyzing, assembling, organizing, and dissecting standardized test questions for test on all subjects at all grade levels. We understand just how much careful thought goes into each stem and distractor. Those who work in the test development industry know that crafting good items is an art and science understood by few, and appreciated by still fewer. At Anaxos, you will find those rare folk who know how to create and appreciate good tests.
