Abstract

Developmental assessment is the process of monitoring a student's progress through an area of learning so that decisions can be made about the best ways to facilitate further learning. Developmental assessment uses a progress map or continuum that describes the nature of development or progress or growth in an area of learning and so provides a frame of reference for monitoring individual development. Progress is monitored in much the same way as a child's physical growth is monitored: from time to time an estimate is made of a student's location on a developmental continuum, and changes in location provide measures of growth over time. This issue of the Assessment Resource Kit (ARK) magazine series contains six articles: 1. What is Developmental Assessment? 2. Progress Maps; 3. Assessment methods; 4. Judging and recording; 5. Estimating attainment; 6. Reporting.
