A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF EDUCATION SYSTEMS AND ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORKS: CANADA AND UZBEKISTAN

Abstract

This study provides a comparative analysis of the education systems and assessment frameworks of Canada and Uzbekistan. It examines the structural organization, governance, curriculum design, and evaluation methods used in both countries. The research highlights key differences in decentralization, with Canada’s provincially managed system emphasizing flexibility, inclusivity, and competency-based assessment, while Uzbekistan maintains a more centralized model with standardized curricula and examinations. The paper also explores recent reforms in Uzbekistan aimed at modernization and alignment with international standards, as well as Canada’s focus on continuous assessment and student-centered learning.
