Rethinking Assessment – An overview of alternative assessments to end of term exams
An overview of alternative assessments which can be managed via email or, in a more structured and coherent way, using the online tools available on Sulis/Moodle and Turnitin. Reflecting on your current practice while reviewing this resource can support enhancement in alternative assessments.
The toolkit is a set of 8 modules, delivered and accessible asynchronously, online, incorporating elements of information literacy, critical thinking and academic writing skills to allow students prepare for and complete an assignment in line with best practice in academic integrity.
This VITAL event seeks to build upon previous National Forum seminars/webinar by further exploring the potential offered by new technologies to revitalise language teaching and broaden the skillset of Irish learners.
Tutors is an professional and intuitive platform for the creation of compelling educational content. It is open source, well documented and now used by upwards of 160 modules at Waterford Institute of Technology. The platform employs the latest thinking in the production of media-rich web content, with a focus on delivering a simple, easy to navigate, elegant and compelling student experience. A central goal of Tutors is to fostering the sense on an online community of learners. These interactions are promoted by a set of non-intrusive measurements (we call TutorsTime) which help students and educators understand the use of the student’s time on a module.
A book chapter was also published as part of the initiative, which can be found here https://reader.tutors.dev/#/talk/wit-hdip-comp-sci-showcase.netlify.app/unit-3/talk-1-course-philosophy/course-philosophy.pdf
