Abstract

This book discusses instruction, learning, and assessment in higher education with an emphasis on several effective formative assessment tools and methods such as digital badges, reflective journals, and peer assessment used in learning environments comprising students of diverse, multicultural backgrounds. Each chapter provides a rich theoretical review, followed by a case study detailing the challenges involved in using those assessment methods in a diverse classroom, as well as practical suggestions for removing potential barriers, especially for minority students. Most of the narrated case studies are accompanied by episodes, thoughts, and feelings expressed by both students and instructors throughout the assessment processes. This book provides a valuable updated reference source for pedagogical and research purposes for a wide audience. Students, teachers, policymakers, curriculum designers, and teacher educators interested in fostering initiatives in higher education can undoubtably benefit from this book's contents, which are aimed at adapting teaching-learning assessment processes to the unique learning needs of culturally diverse student populations. .

Abstract

This book uses transnational history to explain the formation of modern schools in a territory that lacks modern education. The emergence of modern Jewish education in Ottoman Palestine resulted from European actors and networks' infiltration of educational concepts due to several unique elements. One of them was the activity of transnational networks and actors. The other factor is the important place of education in shaping reality in the Jewish and Hebrew discourse. The area of Ottoman Palestine was almost devoid of modern education, so it is possible to examine the ways of transferring educational concepts. Historians can diagnose the starting point and locate the actors' biographies and journeys. The book discusses and discovers several themes, such as molding five portraits of modern Jewish and Hebrew education graduates and the function of the school as a medical site due to the shortage of public health policy. Tali Tadmor-Shimony is a historian of education at Ben Gurion University, Israel. Her main interest covers the transfer of educational ideas, curriculum history, women teachers, immigrant teachers, and Hebrew education. She has published articles in leading scientific journals and two books, one of which was published in two editions. Nirit Raichel is Associate Professor in Education at the Kinneret College, Israel. She specializes in the field of instruction, learning, and assessment and teachers' identity. She has published in leading scientific journals and has written eight books, such as Equity and formative assessment in higher education (2021). .
