Paper Session
Contribution
The use of technology can contribute to solving certain crucial problems in education by supporting the personalization of learning. Diagnostic assessments can be implemented in school practice to facilitate differentiated instruction through regular measurements and to provide instruments for teachers to make formative assessments. The aims of this paper are: to describe the process of devising and implementing an online diagnostic assessment system; to outline main features and experiences of its application; and finally, to show how the use of technology can contribute to overcoming certain crucial problems in education by promoting the personalization of learning. The development of the eDia system started in 2009 as part of a comprehensive project. It is designed to provide regular diagnostic feedback in three main domains of education, reading, mathematics and science, from the very beginning of schooling up to the end of the sixth grade. The cognitive foundations of the system are based on a three-dimensional approach in each domain, distinguishing the reasoning, application and disciplinary dimensions of learning. By now, the system has operated in over 1000 schools, facilitating development toward personalizing education, with 25,000 tasks developed and tested.
