World Yearbook of Education 2017 : Assessment Inequalities Paperback / softback

Edited by Julie (University of Stirling, UK) Allan, Alfredo J. (Arizona State University) Artiles

Part of the World Yearbook of Education series

Paperback / softback

Description

This latest volume in the World Yearbook of Education Series focuses on assessment systems and efforts to advance equity in education at a time of growing inequalities.

It considers new economic trends and investigates how constraints appear to be influencing assessment and identification practices.

The volume is organized around the following main issues: political motives behind the expansion of an assessment industry; the associated expansion of an SEN industry, and; growth in consequential accountability systems.

It ultimately seeks to provide reframings and reconceptualizations of assessment and identification by offering new insights into economic and cultural trends influencing them.
