This collection is mostly comprised of shorter pieces such as the influential Five challenges in Australian school education and other essays and posts relating to themes of: effective use of assessment; focus on growth and progress; and school and system improvement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe four sections of the book are: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart 1: 'Big Five' Challenges in School Education.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart 2: Is School Reform Working?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart 3: Reconceptualising Educational Assessment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart 4: Schools as Learning Organisations. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe editors have drawn on this body of writing by Professor Masters in an attempt to tell the story of these past seven years. If the beginning of this story was the publication of Reforming Educational Assessment: Imperatives, principles and challenges (AER 57), the release of the report of the Review to Achieve Educational Excellence in Australian Schools, might be seen as the end of the beginning. With a greater understanding and emerging consensus of the challenges, implications and needed approaches, the next chapter in the story must focus on what Masters has called 'the hard work of improvement'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 162\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.35 x 10 x 7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 03, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53377084293427,"sku":"9781923569348","price":36.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/3mBd3ZoTu19781923569348.webp?v=1779314875","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/a-commitment-to-growth-essays-on-education-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
