Dear Christina, I recently watched your video on "Why STEM Assessment Still Looks Like 1950" on The Curio Cabinet, and I was truly impressed. Your analysis of the gap between modern instructional technology and traditional evaluation methods is very insightful. As someone involved in the educational sector, I found your point about the need for "credibility and trust" in assessment systems particularly thought-provoking.
