Offering a valuable introduction to those beginning their journey into educational assessment, this book provides both teachers and students insights into the challenging world of designing, implementing, and interpreting classroom assessments.School-based assessments are essential in planning for quality teaching and learning, but getting assessments "right" can be a challenging task for teachers, especially those who are new to the profession. It is exacerbated by the fact that because learners often experience assessment last in the lesson cycle, it is also the last consideration in teachers’ minds. This text is divided into four sections: (a) “Foundations of Assessment”, (b) “Assessment Design and Development”, (c) “Approaches to Formative Assessment”, and (d) “Sustainable Assessment for the Future”. By the end of the book, readers will have a solid understanding of classroom assessment practices and be equipped to design and implement assessments that support student learning, promote equity and inclusion, and take into account the important psychosocial aspects of assessment (e.g. how it impacts students’ well-being).It is a must read for trainee teachers, education policymakers, and in-service teachers looking to freshen their knowledge of the latest educational assessment innovations.

This book provides students, teachers, and researchers with a deeper examination of educational assessment fundamentals and examines assessment beyond (best) practices. The authors go beyond simply updating what is best practice assessment by understanding “best practices” in a way that will hold true for the future, especially in the wake of the drastic disruptions in these past few years.Covering key topics of inclusive assessment, psychosocial impacts and wellbeing of students, and assessment in the age of technological proliferation and Artificial Intelligence, this book is divided into four sections: (a) “Assessment fit for future in schools, for society”, (b)”Assessment literacy, and leadership” (c) “Theories and technicalities of assessment ”, and (d) “Assessment for all learners in schools, and society”. By the end of the book, readers will have nuanced understandings of the complexities of assessment issues that can enable a re-examination of what is fundamental to assessment and learning in schools, and how that prepares our learners for uncertain futures in society.This book is a must-read for teachers, school leaders, policy makers, and researchers looking to reflect critically on their assessment practices, and consider new ways of formulating assessment that is fit for all learners in schools and beyond.
