Company Overview
About Center for Measurement Justice:
The Center for Measurement Justice (CMJ) is a new research center dedicated to justice-oriented educational assessments. We envision a future in which all learners, especially Black, Brown, and Indigenous students, experience school assessments that validate their cultural identities and measure what they, their communities, and their families care about. In this future, all students, but especially Black, Brown, and Indigenous students, see educational assessments as valuable tools to support their learning and liberation. Toward our vision, CMJ’s work is to do and fund anti-racist measurement research, support the next generation of anti-racist assessment professionals, and build awareness about justice-oriented measurement by providing research-based information to the field of education leaders, policy makers, and practitioners. Our goal is to become the epicenter of engagement and research on social justice-oriented educational measurement.
The pillars that form the foundation of CMJ’s vision and mission:
Increasing Representation of Black, Brown, and Indigenous scholars within measurement fields;
Supporting Critical Research through internal research and grantmaking activities centered on antiracist assessment practices; and
Strategic Engagement by connecting the activities of antiracist assessment research strategically to the broader field of thinkers and doers
These three activities will result in
Transformation of foundational components, processes, and practices of assessment research and development systems including the introduction and adoption of novel/innovative justice-oriented resources, methods, etc.
