National Systems of Evaluation in Education

WHY DO WE NEED NATIONAL SYSTEMS OF EVALUATION IN EDUCATION?

In the modern era, nation states must monitor progress on education goals in education. Both national  large scale assessments (NLSAs)and international large scale assessments (ILSAs) of educational achievement may be used for that purpose.

 

One of the weaknesses in Caribbean education systems is the undue focus on public examinations for selection and certification. These assessments have limited value for evaluators because they do not adequately answer the question of "how good is goo enough" and are not designed to measure comprehensively achievement on the curriculum.
