À propos de cet e-book

""National Score Systems"" explores the pervasive use of standardized test scores as indicators of national educational quality.
It argues that these scores, while seemingly objective, often fail to accurately reflect the complexities of diverse education systems.
The book reveals how political influences and socio-economic factors can significantly skew results, challenging the assumption that high scores automatically equate to successful education.
A key insight is that standardized tests might reflect systemic inequalities more than actual improvements in educational quality.
The book examines the historical development and statistical underpinnings of standardized testing, while critically assessing their validity in representing diverse educational landscapes.
It highlights the OECD's role in promoting international comparisons using these scores, cautioning against over-reliance on them.
Furthermore, the book traces the evolution of standardized testing from its origins to its current use in national and international assessments, demonstrating how their interpretations can be misleading.
Organized into four parts, the book progresses from introducing the history and methodology of standardized testing to scrutinizing the political and socio-economic dimensions that influence national score systems.
Finally, it advocates for alternative assessment methods, emphasizing qualitative and holistic measures to provide a more comprehensive evaluation of national school performance and to help design more equitable and effective education policies.
