When teachers are equipped with specific, individual learning data, they can personalize instruction and support every student to reach proficiency. Quality formative assessments also increase students’ ownership of learning by helping them track their own progress and providing them with the data they need to advocate for their own needs. But embedding effective assessment practices into classroom routines requires big shifts—for teachers and students—and presents several upfront questions to resolve: Which assessment tools will provide the best learning data for a particular subject or student population? Which tools are most manageable for busy teachers? Which tools provide scaffolds for students who are new to academic self-reflection and selfdirected learning? How can teachers and students use the data they collect to accelerate and deepen learning?  \nThe Student-Centered Assessment Network (SCAN) seeks to answer these questions and more by empowering a group of teachers to test formative assessment practices with their students and to share what they discover with one another. Coordinated by the American Institutes for Research and supported by the Nellie Mae Education Foundation, SCAN was launched in 2017 with 23 teachers from two Rhode Island high schools.1 Together, the teachers and researchers are using an improvement science approach to implement formative assessment practices that engage students, expand their agency, and improve academic performance.  \nRecognizing the promise and challenges of SCAN’s ambitious professional learning agenda, the Nellie Mae Education Foundation invested in an intensive developmental evaluation to provide actionable information for the network, while simultaneously informing the broader education field. The following brief highlights findings from the pilot year drawn from AIR’s year-end project report and the developmental evaluation of the network conducted by the University of Pittsburgh’s Partners for Network Improvement.2 While the first year was a pilot phase for SCAN, its leaders and participating teachers are already learning lessons that have implications for others interested in promoting student-centered learning and using networked improvement communities to organize change and spread effective practice.  \n1 This document summarizes SCAN activities and learnings in the 2017-18 school year. The network has since grown to almost 50 teachers in three schools in the 2019-20 school year.  \n2 Partners for Network Improvement (PNI), housed in the Learning Research Development Center at the University of Pittsburgh, specializes in the developmental evaluation of improvement networks . Team members include Jennifer Russell, Jennifer Zoltners Sherer, Jennifer Iriti, and Chris Matthis.
