Here I take a needlessly provocative approach to programme design to make a point about scaffolding assessments throughout undergraduate programmes.
#LoveLD We are delighted to share with you #Take5 #125 from David Tree - https://t.co/mraUVVqIMu David uses the Integrated Programme Assessment approach, making sure all assignments explicitly linked to the assessments in the previous and subsequent years. #LTHEchat #studychat

🧵1/7 These are my 6 Leadership Principles During Conflict. Whether you apply these principles to political, business or social and romantic partnerships examples, you will see the truth of the benefits of upholding them, and the danger of ignoring them.

One of the things that made the Roman Republic's alliance system in Italy - upon which was built the lion's share of Rome's victories - so successful was that the Romans handled the system tactfully. Part of the 'deal' of the system was 'we won't humiliate you.' 1/

This from @it_se is excellent. I spend a lot of time ensuring that the assessments taken by students in my part of @Bruneluni are scaffolded by prior activities but this is difficult when students arrive with such a variety of qualifications. This would solve that problem!

I think you could say the same thing about tech in higher education too. @colinloughlin @FerrousPoultry @PauldyOtermans @neuronerdSB @sdpick
I say this with respect: be wary of clothing companies started and run by people whose first love is not clothing but rather business or technology. IMO, it's fine to incorporate tech (and even AI) into the process. But the person serving you has to love clothing first.

Excited to see our work to measure authenticity of assessments and map their progression over a UG program out there! Building on the great work of others, adding our program-level perspective! @Bruneluni @BrunelPsy @BBiosci
A great (open) article on ‘…the value…from taking a programme-wide quantitative approach to authentic assessment.’ @neuronerdSB @PauldyOtermans @PauldyOtermans @DavidTree Measuring and mapping authentic assessment with a novel quantitative typology

Well, this seems like an excellent idea senior leaders should all take the time to try.

Your regular reminder that student evaluations of teaching are demonstrably garbage
Study (N=200 courses) tested 3 interventions to reduce gender bias in student evals, but none were effective. "Women who were tough graders or taught large classes received more criticism than men with the same grading style or class size." @kimelsesser
