MDTP

The UCLA Site of the Mathematics Diagnostic Testing Project (MDTP) is part of The Curtis Center.  MDTP is an intersegmental project funded by CAPP, CSU, and UC to provide diagnostic testsopen-response items, and learning modules free of charge to secondary math educators.  MDTP assessments help educators to learn about their students’ preparedness by course, topic, and skill development in mathematics from grade six through calculus.

When used in effective and appropriate ways, MDTP assessments can support educators’ efforts to purposefully plan instruction to build on students’ current mathematical understandings and intervene on identified unfinished learning and gaps of content knowledge with the goal to promote students’ readiness for college-level mathematics.
