Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research, focusing on the question scheme offered by OPPA, was aimed at developing methods for improving learning and teaching to promote qualities and abilities in science education. The main findings of this research were: ①OPPA, which implements “Assessment as Teaching and Learning”, is effective in fostering learners' qualities and abilities. ②These are promoted by what can be called ”Formation of Objects of Learning based on OPPA". ③Teachers can use self-evaluation to improve their lessons. ④The teacher's self-assessment is based on the learners' self-assessment as manifested in the learners’ " Objects of Learning". ⑤An important factor in these changes is the transformation of the teacher’s thinking.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

学習者の資質・能力を教育現場において実現するには、自己評価のための「問い」の活用が有効である。本研究では、自己評価を重視した評価論である一枚ポートフォリオ評価（OPPA）論の「問い」を中心に、その効果を理論的・実践的の両面から明らかにすることができた。これらは、OPPAに関する研修会を通して検証を重ねることで、より教育現場における実証可能性を確保することができた。これらは、出版された書籍を通して、広く公開されている。
