This collection presents educational assessment research from Latin
America, adding to a relatively small but growing body of research
considering educational assessment and evaluation issues in this
large region. The predominance of Chile reflects its early highly
centralized education system, and the fact that it adopted national
testing before other Latin American countries. It was also an early
participant in international assessment programmes. Other countries
have followed the trend of implementing national testing, and to a
lesser extent participating in international surveys. The
complementary development of technical expertise in quantitative
research methods has enabled extensive analysis of the large data
sets generated by these testing and assessment programmes. Taken
together, the evidence reported provides a means not only of
reviewing educational quality issues in Latin America, but also of
facilitating comparisons that allow the context specificity of
equivalent research conducted in western developed countries to be
considered. The chapters in this book were originally published as
a special issue of Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy and
Practice.
