- Abstract: As outcome-based education has taken hold worldwide, many new findings on learner assessment have emerged. In addition, with the COVID-19 pandemic and the rapid spread of generative artificial intelligence, the situation surrounding learner assessment is entering a new phase. Now is the time to review the historical transition of modern learner assessment in the world and in Japan, to clarify our inherent value criteria for learner assessment, and to discuss the future prospects for learner assessment. This paper will explain the key issues related to learner assessment in the context of past and present trends.
