Inhaltsangabe

This is a book for everyone trying to improve teacher education. Based on experiences primarily in Sweden, three models for assessment of student achievements are analysed: the small thesis model, the portfolio model and the case based model. What are the characteristics of these types and how could they be understood in a broader perspective? “Thorough descriptions and analyses of their effects in educational practice, as presented in Examining Praxis, are an indispensable starting point for real improvements. In fact, the authors of this book do that by connecting first order action research (research by teachers and students into their own practice) with second order action research (research by teacher educators into their own practice) and third order action research (meta-studies by researchers)”. Foreword by Jan Ax, Associate Professor in Educational Studies at the University of Amsterdam and Petra Ponte, Professor at Utrecht University of Applied Sciences and senior researcher at ICLON, Leiden University (Graduate School of Teaching), both in the Netherlands.
