This text has been written in response to the development of national standards for teachers and trainers in Further Education by FENTO (Further Education National Training organisation). Assessment theory and practice is an integral part of all the FENTO-endorsed qualifications, and this book functions as a practical study aid and friendly introduction to a broad and complex subject. It includes research summaries, case studies drawn from across the FE curriculum, and activities to encourage trainees to reflect on and develop their own views on assessment practice.
