Recommendations
At a Glance
- Changing mindset and belief system.
- Belief systems of teachers, parents and policymakers are not exact reproduction
of formal theories.
- Learning and assessment cultures can change.
- Assessment is ‘the tail that wags the dog’. A change of assessment became the engine of the change process and a strong engine is needed to move.
- Educational researchers deeply committed to classroom practices in coalition with
teachers represent a strong force.
- New assessment forms involve a major conceptual shift and both teachers’ and students need to support to change their practices.
- Students have to accept some responsibility for learning.
