Impact Evaluation of Assessment for Learning Programme in selected regions
Overview
The AfL programme has evolved from the “Accelerated Development of Literacy, Numeracy and Life Skills among First Cycle Learners in Ethiopia” programme, originally initiated in 2012 by UNICEF in collaboration with the Ministry of Education (MoE), the Regional Education Bureaus (REBs) in Addis Ababa, Amhara and Harari and had consultancy support from the American Institute for Research (AIR). “Accelerated Development of Literacy, Numeracy and Life Skills among First Cycle Learners in Ethiopia” aimed to develop the capacity of teachers for implementing continuous assessment in their classrooms and provide them with appropriate materials. The AfL programme has built upon the tools and materials developed for the “Accelerated Development of Literacy, Numeracy and Life Skills among First Cycle Learners in Ethiopia” project but has a greater emphasis on the capacity building of teachers and other actors the wider education system to implement effective continuous assessment in the classroom.
The impact evaluation will address the main objectives, which are to:
• Assess the impact of the AfL programme on teacher practice, learner participation and on assessment of learning and to
• Evaluate the extent to which the AfL intervention has improved teacher practice and learning outcomes, and
• Assess how key stakeholders (students, teachers/school administrators, parents, communities) view the relevance and effectiveness of the AfL training, AfL materials/package.
Based on the discussion with the UNICEF, MoE, the REBs & ELIXIR, the finalized evaluation strategy is based on a mixed-methods approach involving:
(1) A quantitative impact evaluation based on primary data collected in the field;
(2) A qualitative mixed-approach based on qualitative field data.
