Assessment for Learning and the impact of technology

The Challenge of Assessment For Learning programmes

• We have been working with SQA on this series of annual conferences for four years and this, the fourth conference, promises to be the most exciting and rewarding yet.

• Scotland has been at the forefront of developing and implementing learning and training that is assessed using the latest IT and ICT techniques and technologies.

• Assessment for learning involves using assessment in the classroom, in training or in the workplace to raise achievement. The goal of assessment for learning is to help learners through a clear and timely understanding of the aims of their learning and expectations, provide advice, feedback and involvement. e-Assessment provides technological tools to achieve this aim.

• The range of options and solutions in the marketplace is growing rapidly. For those selecting, implementing or using computer based assessment (in all its forms) this is challenging and the change management processes, daunting.
