Asia Society Graduation Performance System (GPS)

Asia Society’s Graduation Performance System (GPS) prepares high school students for a global, innovation-driven future.

The GPS is an iterative process that lets teachers improve instruction and students develop the knowledge and skills that will ensure they are ready for college—and the interconnected world beyond. GPS design is informed by best-practice research on performance-based assessment in the United States as well as from top-rated school systems worldwide. The GPS drives teaching and learning experiences that are very real-world and are informed by student choice.

More than a process, the GPS results in students creating a portfolio that demonstrates mastery of global knowledge and skills.
