Assessment 2020: the future development of assessment in Australian universities

Professor David Boud
Tuesday November 10, 2009
Seminar: Assessment, as if learning mattered
11am -12.30pm
How can we ensure that assessment not only contributes to the standards of graduates, but also has a beneficial influence on their learning during and beyond their university study? The seminar will explore how we can use assessment more productively to further the goals of our courses.

Open Forum
3 - 4pm
As part of his ALTC Senior Fellowship, and in conjunction with a team of higher education assessment experts and institutional leaders in teaching and learning, David Boud has been developing a set of propositions for assessment changes to be implemented over the next ten years. The Open Forum is an opportunity to learn about Assessment 2020 and engage in further discussion and debate with Professor Boud about what changes in assessment might mean for you and your students. Discussion will be more fruitful if those taking part have attended the earlier seminar.
