In case you're at the @cies_us conference taking place in Miami, do join us this morning at 10:15 to 11:00am, Third Level, Zamora as we officially launch our collaboratively published @alive_programme book on the contextualisation of 21st Century Skills: Assessment in East Africa. The book contains 12 chapters. Chapter 8 on 'Opportunities and Challenges in Household-Based Assessment of Life Skills' is co-authored by our colleagues @MNakabug @kaburukitui @BenardMadanda. We demonstrate that it is possible to assess the extent to which young people have mastered these skills in the contexts where they are expected to demonstrate them.

This afternoon, our Executive Director @MNakabug will be discussing - Using assessment and research evidence to challenge the education status quo: Lessons from Africa, Asia and Latin America. @cies_us Please join the session if you are attending #CIES2024

📚While the focus on 21st century skills is crucial, we do not need to forget that by prioritizing foundational skills, we can empower individuals, reduce poverty and income inequality, contributing to a more inclusive and prosperous society. ℹ️ wrld.bg/V83250QKcag

The process of developing such tools is long with so much iteration but important. Read about the ALiVE contextualization approach in this book.
