Busan Office of Education Strengthens Competencies of Elementary Assessment Item Development Committee Members

The Busan Metropolitan Office of Education will hold the '2023 Second Half Evaluation Question Development Committee Capacity Building Workshop' at 4 p.m. on the 6th at Asia City in Yeonje-gu for 57 evaluation question development committee members.

This workshop aims to enhance understanding of descriptive evaluations and improve expertise in developing evaluation questions, following the increased emphasis on descriptive assessments in the 2022 revised curriculum.

The Busan Office of Education will conduct the workshop in two parts. In the first part, Jo Ho-je, a senior teacher at Jamsil Elementary School in Seoul, will give a lecture on the topic "Understanding and Practice of Achievement Standard-Based Descriptive Evaluation Question Development."

In the second part, excellent questions will be shared by subgroups, followed by an evaluation meeting on the questions developed in the first half of the year.

The Office of Education plans to complete the development of second-half questions by December after a thorough review process. The developed questions will be distributed to schools in January next year.
