Presentation: Measuring learning during crises: Developing and validating the Holistic Assessment of Learning and Development Outcomes (HALDO)

The Measuring learning during crises: Developing and validating the Holistic Assessment of Learning and Development Outcomes (HALDO) PowerPoint Brief was presented at the Oxford Education Research Symposium in July 2024.

The document discusses the development and validation of the Holistic Assessment of Learning and Development Outcomes (HALDO) for measuring learning during crises. It highlights the significant impact of crises on children’s education, with millions out of school or not achieving minimum proficiency. The document covers the literature on education in emergencies, the development of HALDO, and the methods used for its validation, including sample design, data collection, and analysis. The results demonstrate the tool’s validity and reliability across different contexts, emphasizing the importance of contextualization in assessment. The conclusion outlines the next steps for further validation and publication of results.
