According to the thesis, the focus of the pupil's assessment is expected to shift from standardised performance results towards supporting each individual's unique development process and key competences.
Furthermore, revisions of the AP courses and associated assessments are expected to shift the emphasis in biology from memorization of facts to understanding big ideas in biology through the application of science practices such as quantitative reasoning, analyzing data, and evaluating evidence (Mervis, 2009; Wood, 2009b).
Uptrust's goal is to shift from risk assessment to needs assessment and ensure people are supported throughout their interactions with the criminal justice system.
We contend that health literacy assessment and potential interventions need to shift to promoting the knowledge and skills essential for critical health literacy at a societal level.

Others are placing hope in alternative methods, such as "Tox21," where high-throughput molecular-based systems are proposed to shift the assessment of chemical hazards away from traditional experimental animal toxicology studies to methods that reduce time and the burdens on animal use in experimentation by substituting mechanism-based in vitro assays and in silico assessments (Tice et al. 2013).
Objectives: The Tox21 partners agreed to develop a vision and devise an implementation strategy to shift the assessment of chemical hazards away from traditional experimental animal toxicology studies to one based on target-specific, mechanism-based, biological observations largely obtained using in vitro assays.
It culminated in the need to shift from "global impact assessment to finer regional and local-scale studies".
This finding attests to the potential of the AHC, based on a patient's documented risk assessment, to facilitate a shift from episodic acute care to an increased emphasis on prevention within a multi-disciplinary PHC team [ 4].
Agro-industrial companies operating in the basin use hydrological assessments to locate and shift the water scarcity problems to the users, whereas locals blame them for accumulating disproportionately large concentrations of water extraction rights.
