Helpful takeaway from Sally Brown and Kay Sambell's highly entertaining workshop on #AuthenticAssessment. Also loved their handout of example alternative outputs. #Assessment2023

Interesting to hear this argument (paraphrased) āWe need to move on from one grade per module to one grade per learning outcome.ā. In general there seems to be conflicting perspectives in contemporary TL&A discussions, regarding more vs less assessment.
What are the purposes of assessment? Prof David Boud of @Deakin & Prof @gmoneill2 discuss the role of assessment in: ensuring learning outcomes are met, enabling students to use information to aid learning & building student capacity to assess their own learning #Assessment2023

Conferences continue to be the only draw for me to professional twitter anymore (in the Musk era). If anything, I'm increasingly ambivalent, and looking forward to a post-Twitter conference networking landscape.

As I'm at a conference on assessment in the Irish Higher Ed context, very funny to see this tweet come in from an old college friend in the US.
My son just told me he has a physics teacher whose grading system entails letting the kids decide what their grade is and he gave himself a B+. I mean, I guess Iām proud of him for being honest, but Iām also thinking I should get a paternity test done? Say A+ and cash the check!.

Impressive lightning talk by Alisson Farrell on Maynooth University's Assessment and Feedback Hub. Designed for the Irish educational context, but plenty of resources here for those beyond our shores. #Assessment2023.

Impressive turnout and venue for today's @QQI_connect conference on institutional assessment practices. Great that we're including student voice in the discussion today.
