Create a BCI assessment

Bring a particular project and its evidence

Sign in to Assess. Have a project name, purpose, intended users, input and output, plus source material for important claims. If an assessment already exists and you can access it, open that record rather than recreating it

Here the question becomes a particular proposed communication system, with identifiable people, context and evidence. The guide does not supply fictional performance values for you to enter

Open My Assessments

Develop the record in six steps

1. Create or deliberately reuse a record

   Choose New assessment in My Assessments. If starting from a published case, use its explicit assessment action so the release reference is retained and checked. Inspect imported information as source material, with its gaps and dates

   

2. Complete Your project

   Give the project a recognizable name and select the project or study context accurately. For research, choose the study’s progress accurately. A dataset analysis should not be described as a deployed interface simply to obtain a numerical result

3. Describe Purpose & people

   Record the intended benefit, the people affected and the setting. Separate what is hoped for from what has been demonstrated. Review the cumulative picture to check that the project still describes the original purpose

4. Explain How it works and review the evidence

   Describe the input, processing, interface and output. For a research study, use the data-source choices to distinguish existing recordings, new data collection and simulation. Add relevant technical evidence, impact, locations and lifecycle refinements where available. Confirm sourced facts, correct suggestions and leave material unknowns unresolved rather than inventing a value

   

5. Save and read Project Briefing

   Once a name, purpose, input and output are present and the project is saved, choose See your briefing. The assessment normally saves as you work; if a save is still needed or has failed, use Save assessment or Retry save when shown. Check that the descriptive briefing represents the intended project. If a statement is wrong, correct the underlying record. The briefing can be available before the full assessment is complete

   

6. Inspect fuller reasoning when supported

   When the required inputs are complete, review Decision Surface, evidence, pathways and open questions. Data-analysis and dataset studies receive a descriptive briefing but are outside the current numerical model. Do not interpret an unavailable result as a poor score or fill gaps merely to unlock it

Check the record before using it

You should have a saved assessment whose claims can be traced to sources or clearly identified assumptions, plus a list of unresolved questions. Confirm the correct record is selected and the saved information is visible when you reopen it

Next, interpret the evidence and uncertainty or prepare a Passport. Saving an assessment does not approve the project or automatically publish it to the public catalogue
