The ASSISTments Platform ASSISTS students in learning while it gives teachers assessMENT of their students' progress. The ASSISTments platform is a generic system for any subject from math to English to science. Different researcher teams have funding to build libraries of content in ASSISTments. Currently ASSISTments is best known for the mathematic content inside of ASSISTments, but increasingly individual teachers are using ASSISTments to write their own content which they can share with the other teachers. More than half of the questions in ASSISTments have been built by teachers, and that number is growing fast.
