Whether we want it or not, students will acquire exactly the knowledge and skills and on exactly the level that we set for them through our testing methods.

       Do your students barely pass or are they 'high jumpers' who, with your guidance, can easily reach higher levels? If they are not high jumpers the reason for that may lay in the fact that you simply don't require them to be. With the correct use of knowledge assessment technology you can inspire your students to raise the bar! Exams inspire students to study. The content and way of examination, more than anything else, demonstrate to students what we, the professors, consider important. We, as their 'coaches', set the height of the bar, as well as take over the task and the responsibility to help students tackle the obstacle.

     Traditional methods of knowledge assessment are limited in regard of measuring students learning and advancement, as well as guidance during studying. These methods are especially lacking in today's world in which knowledge and working environment change and get supplemented fast, which makes independent life-long learning a necessity. Methods of knowledge assessment are the glue which connects the components of a course - its content, instructional methods, acquired skills, attitudes and habits - into a whole.
