Abstract

A report from the Optimizing Assessment for All (OAA) project which hosted its second regional workshop from October 8 to 12, 2018 in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. Skills such as critical thinking, collaboration, and problem solving are increasingly identified as important learning goals. To support teaching and learning these skills, assessment is key and one of the main challenges that education systems around the world currently face.
