Findings of the 3rd International Assessment for Learning conference Queenstown, NZ, March 2009

40 Representatives from the UK, Canada, USA, mainland Europe, NZ, and Australia meet in NZ in March 2009 to share our experiences of the links between curriculum, learning and assessment and improved student achievement. The range and quality of international experience captured here is unprecedented. 

This seminar will present the findings from this gathering which are most relevant to current developments in Scotland, including Curriculum for Excellence, school leadership implications, and effective IT applications.
