What works in innovation in education - Background report Norway Improving education for adults with basic skills needs through formative assessment
This background report is a part of the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation (CERI) study of teaching and assessment for adults with basic skills needs. The report is a result of cooperation between the Norwegian Institute for Adult Education (Vox) and the Norwegian Directorate for Education and Training. The OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation (CERI) will conduct a two-year international study of exemplary teaching and assessment for adults with basic skills needs. The study, “Improving Teaching and Learning for Adults with Basic Skills Needs through Formative Assessment”, will address significant gaps in understanding of “what works”, for whom and under what circumstances, and will identify policy levers that may improve the quality of provision for this population. This background report is intended to further understanding of challenges with respect to policy, research and practice in this emerging field of interest.
