The Centre for Learning and Teaching is pleased to offer this unit as part of a selection of short courses running in the summer term at the All Saints Campus. This unit will be delivered over 4 Wednesday mornings on 18th and 25th April and 2nd and 9th May 2012.
The unit looks at the relationships between learning, teaching and assessment and the design of appropriate assessment tasks. This is set against the wider context of national, institutional and departmental strategies and the need to situate assessment activity in the whole programme. Participants will produce a review of current assessment practice plus a rationale and action plan for development.
