Assessment for Inclusion seeks to create equitable assessment and feedback practices, valuing diversity and ensuring fair treatment for all. This resource presents an evidence-based conceptual framework, including module and programme assessment design principles.
Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it
The UCD Assessment for Inclusion (AfI) Framework is designed for staff who teach, in partnership with their students, to:
– Think about the meaning of ‘inclusion’, ‘equity, ‘fairness’ and ‘justice’ in the context of assessment (assessment literacy) – Explore the purposes and benefits of adopting an Assessment for Inclusion approach – Consider the practical use of the Assessment for Inclusion design principles – Reflect on your professional values, identity and emotions in relation to Assessment for Inclusion – Support dialogue between key stakeholders, in particular between students, staff and the wider institution – Enhance your understanding of the processes for change related to Assessment for Inclusion practices and policies at module and programme levels
