Inquiry Mindset: Evaluation
Inquiry Mindset: Evaluation
Description
Book Introduction
While efforts continue to move away from an education focused on entrance exams and grades, in the classroom, "evaluation" is still seen as the end point of learning.
But what we need now is not an assessment that simply gives grades, but an assessment that designs students' learning and growth together.
"The Inquiry Mindset: Evaluation" is a practice-oriented guide that suggests a direction for evaluation that teachers and students can create together within this educational trend.
This is the new book by Trevor MacKenzie, who has received rave reviews from educators around the world with 『Dive into Inquiry』 and 『Inquiry Mindset』. This book deals with the topic of 'evaluation' in particular in depth.
It provides insights into what kind of assessment reflects the learning process, reflects the voice of students, and enables true growth.

Classroom-tailored practice guide


While efforts continue to move away from an education focused on entrance exams and grades, in the classroom, "evaluation" is still seen as the end point of learning.
But what we need now is not an assessment that simply gives grades, but an assessment that designs students' learning and growth together.

"The Inquiry Mindset: Evaluation" is a practice-oriented guide that suggests a direction for evaluation that teachers and students can create together within this educational trend.
This is the new book by Trevor MacKenzie, who has received rave reviews from educators around the world with 『Dive into Inquiry』 and 『Inquiry Mindset』. This book deals with the topic of 'evaluation' in particular in depth.
It provides insights into what kind of assessment reflects the learning process, reflects the voice of students, and enables true growth.

This book is structured around three key points:
First, a shift from a comparative-oriented to a growth-oriented evaluation.
Redefine achievement as personal change and development, not comparison with others.
Second, design student-participatory evaluation.
We actively reflect students' voices in rubrics, standards, and tools, and foster students' self-evaluation capabilities as the main actors in their learning.
Third, partnership between teachers and students.
Assessment is not the teacher's responsibility; it is a journey created together with students, and within this journey, the teacher plays the role of guide and collaborator.

The book is rich in concrete activities, meaningful questions, vivid examples, and carefully designed feedback routines that can be immediately applied in real classrooms.
Beyond simple theory, it is packed with strategies to encourage student participation and autonomy in assessment settings, enabling immediate implementation in the classroom.
This book offers an opportunity for deep reflection, especially for teachers who want to center each student's voice and learning flow. It also serves as a practical springboard and a detailed blueprint for moving beyond the inertia of entrance exam-centered education and transforming into a classroom where "assessment is reimagined alongside children."
In this time of urgent need for change, this is a must-read for anyone seeking to rethink assessment as an educator.

“The one who speaks is the one who learns.” This one sentence, emphasized in this book, reminds both teachers and students that assessment can be a tool for learning.
If you want to listen to your child's potential now, this book, "The Inquiring Mindset: Evaluation," will be the first step.
