Reflecting upon the conversations over the last three years around culturally responsive assessment and related equity and assessment discussions, this occasional paper highlights questions, insights, and future directions for the decade ahead by exploring what equitable assessment is and is not; the challenges and barriers to equitable assessment work; where the decade ahead may lead; and next steps in the conversation on equity and assessment.  \nNational Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment | 3  \nANew Decade for Assessment: Embedding Equity into Assessment Praxis  \nErick Montenegro & Natasha A. Jankowski  \nIn addition to being the dawn of a new decade, January 2020 marks the three-year anniversary of the National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment’s (NILOA) equity conversation. Working to bring the field of assessment in alignment with practices that support the success of diverse learners, NILOA’s equity work focuses on being collaborative. The conversation on equity in assessment began with the launch of Occasional Paper 29 titled Equity and Assessment: Moving Towards Culturally Responsive Assessment. The goal of the paper was to open a dialogue on the relationship between equity and assessment by presenting the concept of culturally responsive assessment. Equity and Assessment implored the field of assessment to examine assessment processes in order to be responsive to both issues of equity and the needs of diverse learners, focusing on embedding culturally responsive assessment into processes and practices. Using the paper as a space for dialogue on the assumptions from which assessment operates, Montenegro & Jankowski (2017) sought to encourage assessment work to be reflective of the students served and to ultimately use assessment data to address learning, persistence, and attainment gaps.  \nSince 2017, the message of Equity and Assessment has spread beyond the confines of those initial pages.
