Assessment in Education. IBE Special Alert

As another year is approaching, the time seems appropriate to look back and reflect on all the things that have been done, and more importantly learned during 2014. Along the same lines, and in order to offer further food for thought, the IBE is happy to share with you its latest Thematic alert on the topic of assessment in education. More specifically, the IBE has compiled this list of resources on educational assessment to assist curriculum developers, researchers and practitioners. The first section focuses on assessment for learning, followed by assessment of learning. Other sections include guides and tools, and reports and studies. The Links section provides the URLs for programmes such as: PISA, TIMSS, etc. where their numerous papers and reports may be consulted. Most of the publications and documents are freely accessible online.
