Understanding
Assessment
Understanding Assessment provides a timely discussion of the debates concerning assessment
in schools and colleges. The book provides an overview of assessment and adopts a
pragmatic approach in recognising the value of different forms and purposes of evaluation.
The book looks at the ‘examinations industry’, the technicalities of external examining
and the financial implications of assessment. The authors then make a strong case for
formative classroom assessment, arguing that in the current system external testing is over
emphasised. They explore both external and internal classroom assessment, which they
characterise as conflicting cultures of assessment in education. In a detailed case study of
teacher assessment they show how these two cultures can be reconciled.
