| Description | Papers discuss educational assessment as one of the major areas of psychological assessment. On the declarative level, the individualization of teaching is one of the central themes of the changes taking place in the Czech education system since the 90th years and logically demands a better knowledge of the individual characteristics of each individual student. Educational assessment practice this system development only partially replicates. Historically developed educational assessment areas maintain high level, but a number of new topics and areas are sidelined and assessment tools are designed unsatisfactory, with the logic consequences for the entire education system. Educational assessment ceased to be a showcase for diagnostic and became her backyard, although the entire population has experience with this kind of assessment. A number of assessment activities in the field of education can be seen as an example of high-stakes assessment. The paper tries to identify some problematic part of the training of users of diagnostic tools and their results and educational policy and its implementation in the form of regulations governing the assessment in the field of education. |
