Mapping of SDG Indicators in Learning Assessments

Learning assessments represent a powerful tool to improve learning outcomes. This page presents a repository of the most widespread learning assessments programs with special focus on their potential ability to monitor Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4 progress. The information is based on a mapping of cognitive and non-cognitive questionnaires against SDG 4 indicators and it is organized by listing all assessments with questions that could report against each specific indicator. The “i” icon on the right-hand side shows the question being asked in the assessment with reference to the sourced questionnaire. The presentation summarizes the conclusions.

This is an important tool; it shows the potential that lies in learning assessments and it also provides suggestions for other learning assessment initiatives.
