Abstract

This briefing note focuses on issues pertaining to assessment within large-scale teacher professional development (TPD) programs. Conventionally, there are two main purposes for assessment — for certification and for supporting learning (Newton, 2007). In professional learning programs, we might add a third purpose: to promote career-long professional learning through the development of skills associated with an identity as a self-evaluating and self-regulating professional (Boud, 2000).
