Assessment is a key area of interest and debate in education.
Its increased use by governments as a powerful means of influencing
educational practice are now features of the educational scene
worldwide. This volume was the first major international review of
such developments and it explores the impact of assessment on all
areas of education, from teaching skills to policy-making.
The contributors take a global perspective to spotlight the
common problems facing teachers and students, policy-makers and
politicians through the world as they seek to reconcile issues of
equity and national development, educational imperatives and finite
state resources. The contributions discuss the changing role of
assessment and public examinations, and consider such specific
issues as the development of a market economy in educational
provision, the difficulties of measuring standards in international
studies, and accreditation of absolute rather than relative
competencies.
