Abstract
A method and system for knowledge assessment and learning that assesses the true knowledge of a human subject. The invention incorporates non-one dimensional testing techniques to obtain the subject's knowledge and associated confidence level. The invention produces an assessment or test profile, including formative and summative evaluation, which is correlated to a database of learning materials and presented to the subject for review and/or reeducation of the substantive response. The invention accommodates various test queries without regard to the specific nature of the queried subject. The present invention is adaptable for use in microprocessor-based stand alone computers, individual use or distributed in a client-server environment of a communication network. The system incorporates a plurality of user-interfaces and web browser dialog controls inputting the queries, administering the assessment, providing feedback to the system user and/or the test subject and providing learning materials according to the assessment profile.
