New Assessment for New Learning Guidebook I explores a new definition of learning which is based on cognitive, philosophical, and multicultural research perspectives. These perspectives suggest that meaningful learning occurs when a learner has a knowledge base that can be used with fluency to make sense of the world, solve problems, and make decisions. Learners need to be self-determined, feel capable, and continually strive to acquire and use the tools they have to learn. They need to be strategic learners who have a repertoire of effective strategies for their own learning. Finally, they need to be empathetic learners who view themselves and the world from perspectives other than their own.
