As usual, the August issue of the newsletter Insights from the Statistical Department is dedicated to the presentation of the results of the National Student Assessment Surveys for the 2025/26 school year. These results are analysed and published in the 2026 National Report, which was presented on 16 July at the Chamber of Deputies’ Palazzo dei Gruppi Parlamentari in Rome.
The INVALSI National Report 2026 has been presented at the Chamber of Deputies.
The full programme for the 4th International Conference on Democratic Education, organised by the journal “Scuola Democratica” in collaboration with Sapienza University of Rome and Il Mulino, is now online.
The volume collects six contributions presented at the ninth edition of the seminar (Rome, 17-19 October 2024). The contributions explore how gender, social background, and migrant status influence educational outcomes and choices, while also addressing inclusion, personalised learning pathways, and educational policies. The overall aim is to better understand the mechanisms that generate inequalities and to promote a more equitable and inclusive education system.
This issue of the newsletter “The Insights of the Statistical Department”, tratta della nuova rivista scientifica internazionale promossa da INVALSI, EJERE – European Journal of Evaluation and Research in Education, dedicata agli studi sulla valutazione educativa, la misurazione degli apprendimenti e l'analisi dei sistemi di istruzione.
The European Journal of Evaluation and Research in Education (EJERE) invites scholars, researchers, and practitioners to submit original contributions for its inaugural issue. EJERE is an international, peer-reviewed journal promoted by INVALSI, dedicated to advancing research on educational evaluation, large-scale assessment, and evidence-informed policy and practice. The journal aims to foster high-quality scientific debate and to bridge research, data, and decision-making in education systems.
The document outlines the theoretical and methodological framework for the INVALSI digital competences assessment, contextualizing it within broader landscape of societal and educational digital transformation. Digital competences are not viewed as merely technical skills, but rather as critical, ethical, and cross-cutting skills that are essential for learning, active citizenship, and reducing inequalities.
