2018 National Assessment of Dutch (Reading, Listening and Writing) in Primary Education in Flanders

In 2018 a national assessment was carried out, which was commissioned by the Flemish government, to assess whether pupils have sufficient skills to read, listen and write in Dutch at the end of primary education. Attainment targets for reading were already assessed for the fourth time, attainment targets for listening for the third time and attainment targets for writing for the first time. Previous assessments took place in 2013, 2007 and 2002. Data were collected through a written listening and reading test. In addition, a practical test was administered to assess certain writing skills. A representative sample of 3119 pupils from 119 Flemish primary schools participated. Tests were supplemented with questionnaires for pupils, parents and teachers. These questionnaires collected, among other things, information on background characteristics of the pupils, school and teachers, classroom practices and the teachers' didactic approaches. The response rates to these questionnaires were 99% for pupils and 88% for parents. Teachers were able to complete part of the questionnaire online, for which the response rate was 97%. For the paper part, the response rate was 96%.2018年，受弗拉芒政府委托开展全国性评估，旨在核验小学生完成初等教育阶段后是否掌握足够的荷兰语阅读、听力与书写技能。其中，阅读能力达标评估已开展至第四次，听力能力达标评估为第三次，书写能力达标评估则为首度实施。此前的评估分别于2013年、2007年及2002年开展。 数据采集采用书面化的听力与阅读测试，此外还通过实操测试对部分书写技能进行评估。本次评估共有来自119所弗拉芒小学的3119名学生作为代表性样本参与。 本次评估还配套了面向学生、家长与教师的调查问卷，问卷内容涵盖学生、学校及教师的背景特征、课堂教学实践以及教师的教学法相关信息等。 上述问卷的应答率分别为：学生99%，家长88%。教师可线上完成部分问卷，该部分的应答率为97%；纸质问卷部分的应答率则为96%。
