This paper is part of the work undertaken by the OECD Review on Evaluation and Assessment Frameworks for Improving School Outcomes. The OECD Review on Evaluation and Assessment Frameworks for Improving School Outcomes is designed to respond to the strong interest in evaluation and assessment issues evident at national and international levels. The overall purpose is to explore how systems of evaluation and assessment can be used to improve the quality, equity and efficiency of school education. The Review looks at the various components of assessment and evaluation frameworks that countries use with the objective of improving student outcomes. These include student assessment, teacher appraisal, school assessment and system evaluation. More information is available at: www.oecd.org/edu/evaluationpolicy.

However, in eastern and central Europe there is a particular urgency about the debate as newly independent states review and reform their education systems in the light of changing social and economic conditions. Slovenia is currently in the middle of a development programme which will eventually affect all parts of its education system. In July 1995, a major feature of the programme became reality when the first Matura, or graduation examination, was successfully conducted on a national scale.

    The Problem Posed by Exam Choice on the Comparability of Results in the Finnish Matriculation Examination

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Helsingin yliopiston digitaalinen arkisto Journal for Educational Research Online Journal für Bildungsforschung Online Volume 8 (2016), No. 2, 87–106 © 2016 Waxmann Sirkku Kupiainen, Jukka Marjanen & Jarkko Hautamäki The problem posed by exam choice on the comparability of results in the Finnish matriculation examination Abstract The article by Kupiainen, Marjanen and Hautamäki focuses on the upper second- ary matriculation examination in Finland as a school leaving and university en- trance examination. The presented research addresses the question of whether increased choice of the subject-specifi c examinations has the potential to under- mine the comparability of examination results and to direct students’ choices not only in the examination but already beforehand at school. The authors re- fer to Finland’s tradition of more than 160 years of a national examination con- necting the academic track of upper secondary schools with universities. The au- thors explain the Finnish system by describing the adoption of a course-based (vs. class- or year-based) curriculum for the three-year upper secondary education and the subsequent reforms in the matriculation examination. This increases stu- dents’ choices considerably with regard to the subject-specifi c exams included in the examination (a minimum of four). As a result, high-achieving students com- pete against each other in the more demanding subjects while the less able share the same normal distribution of grades in the less demanding subjects. As a con- sequence, students tend to strategic exam-planning, which in turn aff ects their study choices at school, often to the detriment of the more demanding subjects and, subsequently, of students’ career opportunities, endangering the tradition- al national objective of an all-round pre-academic upper secondary education.
