Themes In Practice (2)

The following video outlines another of the technology-rich approaches to assessment used in the ESCAPE project. The Weekly Assessed Tutorial Sheet (WATS) approach to assessment has been used elsewhere at UH (I developed the approach and the technologies to support my engineering undergraduates) but it's just great to see it being used here too.


The video is another of the assessment TIP's (Themes In Practice) and has been produced to show how our ESCAPE themes relate to assessment practice.

Mapping the assessment landscape

Initial activity of the ESCAPE project related to us 'mapping the assessment landscape'.

The following demonstrates our activity and offers the idea as a concept to help you in your explorations

Mapping educational effectiveness and resource efficiency

One of the instruments we used to engage our ESCAPE partners was a simple two-dimensional matrix. The matrix has axis for educational effectiveness and resource efficiency.

we found this to be a valuable tool to work with our partners in developing better educative assessments that are not overly demanding on their time. The following video sets out the matrix.
