This contribution presents a reflection on teachers’ professional development regarding classroom assessment, which emerged from the experience of a training course carried out for a network of secondary schools in Rome in 2019/2020, that was interrupted due to the COVID-19 outbreak, and from a follow up group interview, carried out at the end of the school year to discuss teachers’ perspec¬tives and experience related to assessment during online teaching. In this paper, remote schooling is considered as an occasion in which, due to the inefficacy of traditional teaching methods and tools, teachers were asked to make a change within highly established practices. The reflections on assessment arise from the integration between the face to face teachers’ training and their experience during the pandemic on online teaching, highlighting key aspects and challenges that characterise classroom assessment in secondary education in Italy and suggesting further development for future in-service training activities. Results highlight the need to focus teacher professional development on some key elements related to classroom assessment (in terms of item writing, validity and reliability, for instance), that emerged as critical issues from the training course, and on the intersection between teacher practices and assessment methodologies and tools.

Parole chiave:Classroom assessment, Covid-19, Italy, remote schooling, online teaching.
