Perspectives on assessment and evaluation in international education
Synopsis
Assessment and evaluation are two concepts at the core of education worldwide. This book addresses some of the issues around these concepts within an international context that can present a range of challenges for those with responsibility for implementing assessment and evaluation strategies.
Contributions from various international experts working within different contexts (whether as teachers or leaders in international schools, administrators in international examination bodies, or researchers in international educational research organisations) explore different ideas around assessment or evaluation, be that assessment of student achievement, evaluation of teacher effectiveness or evaluation of school quality.
