Abstract:

Presents current theoretical, psychometric, and practical issues related to the assessment of competencies within various educational settings. Psychometric models for assessing and predicting competencies and measuring change are outlined and discussed while practical issues such as test construction, computer-based assessment, feedback options, large-scale assessment of competencies, and the implementation of assessment tools in school contexts are addressed.
