We have funding from the HEA for a seminar on self-assessment that we (Tony Gardner-Medwin and me) are running at the OU in Milton Keynes on 11th June 2012.
It’s a really interesting topic and we have some excellent speakers lined up. How does testing affect learning – for good or ill? What part does ipsative assessment have to play? How about certainty-based marking? And there will be an update on the Moodle quiz engine. Click on OU_prog for the full programme or on http://www.ucl.ac.uk/~ucgbarg/OU_workshop.htm for more information (including booking information).
Do come!
