For teachers, assessment practices continue to be an aspect of the edu- cational process that presents certain difficulties, which is why in many countries regulation at different levels has been proposed. This article pro- poses a descriptive analysis of the assessment practices of pre-school, pri- mary and secondary school teachers of seven schools in Catalonia (Spain) and four in Tuscany (Italy). The study focuses on three criteria for the planning and development of assessment practices: the perception of im- portance, competence and use. The most relevant results of this study us- ing the ActEval assessment practices questionnaire (Quesada et al., 2013) show low student participation and coordination between teachers in the planning and implementation of the assessment practices in both regions. As a general conclusion, there is greater alignment between the three crite- ria in Tuscany than in Catalonia.

Keywords:assessment practices, assessment planning, assessment innova- tion, student participation, assessment competence.
