School-based assessment

[Suzanne Henden]

I have just joined this forum and am keen to know if there is much interest in the role of teachers' assessments as part of formal assessment programs. I am a consultant based in Queensland, Australia where there are no external subject-based exams at the end of high school. There is growing interest in teachers' assessment in many countries and I am keen to build discussion and interest for this important aspect of teachers' professional skills. I have developed web-based technologies for assessment design and moderation. You can find them at www.proema.com.au

I am also doing a PhD study on consistency of teachers' assessment judgments.
