1) What is shared understanding? Shared understanding is a written template that expresses the views and opinions of all participants concerning a topic. It can also be referred to as situation when all participants have an understanding of options that are being considered in decision making, the objectives that are being pursued and the reason for adopting a particular decision option. • It can be of two types:

a.	between two people, in which one of the two is correctly able to express the opinion of the other and the rationale behind it
b.	among more than two people, in which the views of all the members are written.

• The main purpose is to identify and remove poor decision options from variety of opinions. • 'Shared workplace' is used for everyone participating in the development of the shared description. Thus, no form of separate reports. • Finally, it can only be called shared understanding when all the participants think that their views and opinions have been clearly and adequately described.

2) What are Co-creation skills? • These are collection of skills needed in open policy practice. They are important in producing good outcomes by managing decision making process. • Some of the skills found to be very important in practice include; Encouragement, Synthesis, Open data and Modelling. • Encouragement skill is a skill that help, motivate, convince, organise and encourage people to participate in decision process. • Synthesis is useful in producing information obtained in a more structured and useful format • Open data is used in transforming data into meaningful and readable forms. • Modelling is used in developing the actual assessment models using variables produced in open data and generic methods.

  However, in implementing these skills, some work spaces (Opasnet and Innovillage) are employed.

3) What are the properties of Good Assessment?

 These properties are 9 and are further classified into 3 categories as shown below; 

• Informativeness, Calibration and Coherence (Quality of content category) • Usability and Acceptability (Applicability category) • Intra-assessment efficiency and Inter-assessment efficiency (Efficiency category) • Quality of Content and Applicability explains the potential or ability of an assessment to achieve its intended outcomes while Efficiency describes the efficiency of how the potential is produced. • A good assessment is useful in binding modeling and assessment output with intended outcomes
