    Assessment in education must, first and foremost, serve the purpose of supporting learning. So it is fitting to start a study of assessment with an exploration of the meaning and practices of assessment that serve this purpose most directly. This chapter is the story of a development that started with a review of what research had to say about form...

    Given that our review had shown that innovations in formative assessment could raise standards of student achievement substan-tially, it was natural to think about ways to help schools secure these benefits. However, even if a recipe for practice could have been derived from the variety of research studies, our own experience of teachers’ professio...

In retrospect, perhaps, we should not have been so surprised. Whilst teachers could work out after the event whether or not any feedback had had the desired effect, what they needed wa...

    Reflection on the experiences described above led to more profound thinking by participants about their role as teachers and about the need to ‘engineer’ learning environments in order to involve stu-dents more actively in learning tasks. The emphasis had to be on the students doing more of the thinking and making that thinking public. As one teach...
