Course Details

As said by Lockwood & McLean, if assessment is to be a positive force in education, it must be implemented properly. It cannot be used to merely sort students or to criticise. Its goals must be to improve education. This workshop examines reliable, easily planned alternatives to the culture of ‘test, test, test’ without creating more work.
