Assessment literacy is increasingly recognized as a critical element in the preparation of future teachers, especially in subjects where academic achievement is closely measured, such as mathematics. Yet, the extent to which pre-service teachers develop assessment-related understanding remains a subject of ongoing discussion. This article explores the general patterns and tendencies regarding assessment literacy among future mathematics teachers within the context of higher education. Drawing on conceptual frameworks and previousinternational findings, the study examines the presence and depth of assessment-related knowledge and attitudes among students preparing for teaching careers. Special attention is given to the role of practical teaching experience in shaping these competencies. While various educational programs emphasize assessment in theory, questions persist about its transfer into real teaching contexts. The study contributes to this dialogue by analyzing indicators of assessment literacy and reflecting on the implications for teacher education. The findings underscore the importance of aligning theoretical content with pedagogical practice and offer suggestions for improving training components related to assessment. This research provides insights relevant to teacher educators and curriculum developers who seek to enhance the effectiveness of initial teacher education and ensure that future educators are well-equipped to assess student learning in a meaningful and responsible way.
