Global Citizenship: Teaching and Evaluation in Formal and Informal Contexts of Learning

To grow as a global citizen requires both academic development and personal development. Therefore, evaluation of global citizenship learning is a complex and debated issue: because how exactly do we assess the development of qualities that are linked to ‘soft’ competencies such as intercultural communication and to value-based perceptions of culture, altruism, ourselves and our fellow human beings? In this chapter, Associate Professor at Roskilde University, Louise Tranekjær presents her findings regarding the assessment practices at Rysensteen and the assessment tools she developed as a consequence of these findings during her three years of field studies at the school from 2015 to 2018.
