Abstract
The current role of assessment is undergoing substantial change with a number of European countries paying increasing attention to the development of assessment methodologies in an attempt to measure the informal/nonformal learning that is taking place at work, in leisure time activities and at home. This chapter highlights some of the challenges and dilemmas facing the new wave of assessment methodologies which are currently being developed by asking three questions: (1) which methodologies have been introduced in order to expand assessment and measurement techniques into areas of nonformal learning?; (2) what are the main motivations behind these efforts to introduce assessments into new areas and what expectations are they supposed to meet?; and (3) are current methodological approaches to the assessment of nonformal learning able to respond to the expectations with which they are confronted?
