A volume in Research on Sociocultural Influences on Motivation and
Learning Series Editor: Dennis M. McInerney, The Hong Kong
Institute of Education Assessment for learning is meant to engage,
motivate, and enable students to do better in their learning.
However, how students themselves perceive assessments (both
high-stakes qualifications and low-stakes monitoring) is not well
understood. This volume collects research studies from Europe,
North and South America, Asia, and New Zealand that have
deliberately focused on how students in primary, secondary, and
tertiary education conceive of, experience, understand, and
evaluate assessments. Assessment for learning has assumed that
formative assessments and classroom practices would be an
unqualified success in terms of student learning outcomes. Making
use of a variety of qualitatively interpreted focus groups,
observations, and interviews and factor-analytic survey methods,
the studies collected in this volume raise doubts as to the
validity of this formulation. We commend this volume to readers
hoping to stimulate their own thinking and research in the area of
student assessment. We believe the chapters will challenge
researchers, policy makers, teacher educators, and instructors as
to how assessment for learning can be implemented.
