Assessing transferable skills

The embedding of digital technology across all forms of subject-assessment creates opportunities for developing learners’ transferable skills over and above vocational expertise that is at the core of their learning programmes. This module looks at how you can make transferable skills development an explicit planned outcome of your assessment strategy and at ways to work together with colleagues to deliver it as a shared goal.

Digital tools for summative assessment

Computer-based tests and digital media are widely used in formative assessment. This module looks at their use for enhancing low stakes summative assessment activities, where the goal is to test and confirm that a learner has completed a block of work, and for programmes such as NVQ, where they can contribute to the body of evidence submitted for verification.

Formative assessment using quizzes

Quizzes have long been recognised as a useful method to test learners' knowledge and check their understanding, but they offer more than that. Their effectiveness lies in their ability to be accessed when learners want to check learning and can be repeated as often as leaners want, allowing both checks on current learning and iterative checks on progression.

How to improve feedback using audio and video

Using videos, structured sets of annotated still images and sound recordings can be a great way to provide feedback. This is particularly true when the work you are assessing is an event or performance of a task: when you want to know how well an apprentice changed a washer, not how well they wrote it up afterwards - or when written responses are a barrier rather than an enabler because of reading, language, physical or other difficulties. This module looks at how you can try out these media and adopt them into your practice to improve the quality of feedback to your learners.

Improving feedback using written digital communication tools

Written text remains the most common way of providing feedback to learners on their outcomes and performance in assessment. Many digital tools are now available for creating and delivering written feedback in different formats and media, annotating, overwriting, converting speech to text, automatically responding, filling in comments and doing more besides. This module looks at how you can use these to improve written feedback.

Supporting and evidencing learning using digital media

Taking photos, making videos and creating sound recordings is easy work for anyone with access to a smartphone or tablet. Once captured, image, video and audio files can be easily uploaded and stored online, edited, mixed with other evidence, shared for assessment and annotated for feedback. This module looks at when, where and for whom using these media to record evidence for assessment and other purposes will improve teaching and learning.

Using classroom response systems or online polling

Polling tools have stretched far beyond their original function of carrying out surveys and reporting results. Anyone who bought goods or services online will have encountered them; they underpin user satisfaction reporting across the board in the burgeoning online retail market, from holidays to groceries. This module looks at how to apply them to learning and assessment.

Using e-portfolios to support learners

An e-portfolio is an online repository, belonging to and managed by the owner. It's a personal technology rather than shared, like a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). It contains artefacts added by the owner that are curated, arranged and presented, either in their own right or as evidence supporting attainment statements that showcase the owner's competencies and accomplishments. E-portfolios allow the reordering of content to support different presentations of the owner's abilities depending on the need.

Using learner information

This module examines how we currently use the data available to us, how we might find ways to develop it further to improve teaching and learning and what the emerging field of learning analytics might contribute.
