Cluster 4 explores innovative assessment methods in STEM education. The first session examines how assessment aligns with educational practices across educational contexts and presents tools to enhance student thinking, reasoning, collaboration, and problem-solving. The second session introduces frameworks for assessing creative reasoning and STEM competencies, while the final session addresses equity in assessment.
The cluster contains a cross-cluster guide along with three session presentations and an activity sheet.

About the ICSE Academy
The ICSE Academy is a currently running international project (2022-2025) that offers professional development for in-and pre-service STEM teachers. The project’s aim is to promote the European dimension and increase mobility and collaboration in STEM teacher education and training.
The project is coordinated by the International Centre for STEM Education (ICSE ) at the University of Education Freiburg and is a collaboration of higher education Institutions, policy-making organizations and schools across 13 European countries.
One of its main activities is the online european workshop series. The focus of this workshop series is bringing participants up to date in research and teaching in the STEM subjects in connection with European priorities such as fostering sustainability, digital skills and intercultural learning. A total of 4 clusters have been developed so far.
