  1. Assessment ‘for’ Learning Students supporting each others’ learning by developing learning resources Steve Rutherford, Zoe Prytherch, Kelly BéruBé School of Biosciences Cardiff University RutherfordS@cf.ac.uk PrytherchZC@cf.ac.uk

  2. ASSESSMENT FOR LEARNING Assessment should be an INTEGRAL part of the learning experience

  3. ASSESSMENT FOR LEARNING Assessment should be an INTEGRAL part of the learning experience Reinforce curriculum Consolidate knowledge and understanding Enable students to see progress Encourage inquiry Develop authentic skills Be relevant to ILOs Support student learning

  4. How can the assessment of one student be of benefit to another?

  5. Group Task (Cell Biology) Design a Learning Resource Can be anything: pamphlet, video, powerpoint, tutorial, website

  6. Group Task (Cell Biology) Design a Learning Resource Can be anything: pamphlet, video, powerpoint, tutorial, website FREE REIN NO HELP OR TRAINING

  7. Group Task (Cell Biology) Design a Learning Resource Assessment Criteria: Accuracy Depth & Breadth of Information Ease of Use CHALLENGE OF RESOURCE

  8. Group Task (Cell Biology) Design a Learning Resource Research trail Show source material Define how information was extracted Show how information was curated

  9. Group Task (Cell Biology) Design a Learning Resource Presentation Explain Resource Discuss rationale Discuss pedagogic value

  10. Group Task (Cell Biology) Design a Learning Resource Detailed Feedback Act on feedback Gain bonus marks FEED FORWARD

  11. Sample Resources http://bi2211.wikispaces.com/

  12. Sample Resources Websites E-Book Wikis

  13. Sample Resources Powerpoints Videos Prezis

  14. Student Reaction Challenging but Enjoyable 1 = Strongly Disagree 5 = Strongly Agree n = 158

  15. Student Reaction Useful for Study and Revision 1 = Strongly Disagree 5 = Strongly Agree n = 158

  16. Student Reaction Invested Time into Assignment Slightly Less Slightly More < Half Half Same Twice > Twice n = 158

  17. Student Reaction Good Points Useful for Revision • Different and interesting • Better than Presentations • Helped understand the subject • Had to learn new skills • Made me think about how to present info • Will get lots of resources to share

  18. Student Reaction Problems Too much time • Hard • Had to learn new skills • Need more guidance

  19. SUMMARY Reinforces lecture material • Makes students think about accuracy of material • Develops Digital Literacy • Active use of Feedback • Provides useful revision and study resource • Of direct use to peers

  20. SUMMARY Learning in HE is a partnership • Students are a rich resource for creating support materials • Mutual support emphasises that learning is a collaborative activity • Assessment FOR Learning
