title = "Communicative evaluation for improvement in education",
abstract = "In much contemporary educational debate evaluation is seen as a powerful means to assure quality in educational systems nationally and locally. This widespread agreement that evaluation is 'the answer' conceals a variety of idea and suppositions about the nature and purposes of evaluation, and about methodological paradigms as well as good practice. In this chapter we introduce the concept of communicative evaluation, a more general and encompassing view of evaluation which opens up scenarios to use evaluation as a tool for improvements in education.",
