Abstract

[Through global assessment reform initiatives like the Assessment and Teaching of twenty-first century Skills (ATC21S) and the Collaborative Assessment Alliance, Intel® has been working alongside governments and policy-makers to create new national standards and national assessments. But understanding how classroom assessment can support education transformation is also the result of research on how Intel’s professional development (PD) programs help teachers use assessment for learning as part of a twenty-first century learning environment. In this paper, we highlight the research on six assessment strategies that should be part of a twenty-first century learning environment and encourage ministries to consider how these strategies may play a role in their own reform efforts: (1) Rubrics, (2) Performance-based assessments (PBAs), (3) Portfolios, (4) Student self-assessment, (5) Peer-assessment, and (6) Student response systems (SRS).]
