This book addresses challenges in the theoretically and empirically
adequate assessment of competencies in educational settings. It
presents the scientific projects of the priority program
"Competence Models for Assessing Individual Learning Outcomes and
Evaluating Educational Processes," which focused on competence
assessment across disciplines in Germany. The six-year program
coordinated 30 research projects involving experts from the fields
of psychology, educational science, and subject-specific didactics.
The main reference point for all projects is the concept of
"competencies," which are defined as "context-specific cognitive
dispositions that are acquired and needed to successfully cope with
certain situations or tasks in specific domains" (Koeppen et al.,
2008, p. 62). The projects investigate different aspects of
competence assessment: The primary focus lies on the development of
cognitive models of competencies, complemented by the construction
of psychometric models based on these theoretical models. In turn,
the psychometric models constitute the basis for the construction
of instruments for effectively measuring competencies. The
assessment of competencies plays a key role in optimizing
educational processes and improving the effectiveness of
educational systems. This book contributes to this challenging
endeavor by meeting the need for more integrative,
interdisciplinary research on the structure, levels, and
development of competencies.
