Overview
In an ever-changing world, where technology is constantly evolving, the mechanisms to assess our students' work frequently change and provide us with both new opportunities and new challenges. This symposium, now in its fifth year, will consider how we can harness technology to improve our practices, explore means to overcome barriers and collaborate with students as co-creators to ensure parity of assessment for our students.
The symposium, via keynotes, oral presentations and workshops, will bring together experts in Assessment and Feedback, alongside practitioners from the sector, to share the latest ideas, initiatives and best practice.
Symposium aims
The aims of this symposium are to:
- provide an open and supportive environment within which to share and discuss contemporary practice and initiatives in teaching and learning; and
- provide evidence-informed examples and ideas for university staff and students to address current challenges in higher education.
Who should attend?
Teaching practitioners including: heads of departments, academic programme leaders and developers, all lecturing staff, professional services staff supporting learning and teaching activities, and learning technologists.
