What is a mastery check

A mastery check is an assessment or evaluation designed to determine the level of understanding or proficiency a learner has achieved in a particular subject or skill. It is often used in educational settings to assess students' mastery of specific learning objectives or standards. Mastery checks can take various forms, such as quizzes, exams, tests, or performance tasks, and are used to determine if a learner has successfully mastered the intended learning outcomes. The results of mastery checks help teachers identify areas that need further instruction or provide feedback to students on their progress.
