July 18, 2022: If you used the original Pre-Test (Pre-/Post-Test PDF), continue to use the Post-Test included and the Pre-/Post-Test Calculator to organize the results.

Please use the new assessment materials if you are beginning the assessment process. The Individual Pre-/Post-Test Scoring file contains the instructions, Pre-Test, Post-Test, and individual scoring summary. After administering the Pre-Test and Post-Test, you can use the Class Summary file to analyze the results of a class, if applicable.

Read the Facilitator Manual well before presenting the course to students. It contains information about problem-based learning, qualifications for facilitators, and the best way to present the curriculum. Be sure also to read the topic-specific materials in each module of the Facilitator Manual before teaching the module.
