Abstract
Traditional assessment tends to be a one-size-fits-all approach to student learning that does not consider individual students nor the underlying systems of power and oppression in higher education.

The authors compare and contrast traditional assessment with learner-centered assessment and describe benefits, characteristics, and strategies for implementing equity-centered assessment.
