INTRODUCTION

This BLOG has been made in relation to ETP401 at Deakin University by Aimee Jones (212077581). Investigation into assessment was the main criteria which needed to be met in this assignment. The main topic covered first is - External High Stakes Testing - this looks at two different types of tests, a National one, NAPLAN and an International one, PISA.
The second topic covered is Assessment Policy: Education Systems. The research for this topic was conducted with a focus on two different education systems; assessment policy within Victoria and assessment policy within Finland.
Case Study: School Assessment Culture incorporates artefacts collected from school where I completed my first placement round for this year and information. These artefacts are based on the assessment within the school.
My final post is a reflective statement which is a synopsis of my stance on assessment, it is focused on my professional learning.
