the importance of assessment - 1
QAA feedback says we are all bad at feedback
QAA wish to see how assessment links to learning outcomes
subject benchmarks National Qualifications Framework

the importance of assessment - 2
assessment shapes students’ learning the importance of dialogue and feedback early diagnosis of problems

e3an – the context …
much existing good practice expertise built up over years solutions for particular contexts technology and people approaches identify, explore, acknowledge,
disseminate
work collaboratively across sector

e3an - the plan
question banks as a focus peer reviewed test banks of questions for
electrical and electronic engineering questions produced and reviewed by
paid consultants
supporting materials on methods and practices, workshops and consultancies
![Page 8: PHEE April 2001 Meeting the Assessment Challenge: finding practical approaches Su White and Hugh Davis IAM Learning Technologies: ECS, The University of.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082714/5697c0071a28abf838cc5d7d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

e3an - the plan...
questions banks may be:multiple choice objective teststext based traditional testsself assessment, feedback, course
assignments, exam questionsmainly for formative and diagnostic
assessment – but also as source of ideas for summative assessment

so what is innovative about this?
it has never been done like this before the questions will form a yardstick against
which achievement may be gauged the project aims to build a network of
“champions” across the sector the project focuses on assessment
outcomes rather than technology

themes and teams
theme leader plus expert consultants categorising syllabus cash available for travel plus small fee local teams in phase one - trialling the
process, four themes national teams in phase two, eight
themes

theme process
Working together the theme teams: identify question targets discuss levels and approach agree division of tasks write and review questions trial and evaluate questions

database and interoperability
XML database IMS QTI interoperability standards ++ objective tests for common test engines collaboration with other projects print as the lowest common denominator some examples...

PHEE April 2001
project questions
interoperability standards - reality of vapourware?
how should authors produce questions for maximum interoperability?
are some question types more interoperable than others?
how do we choose a system for interoperability?
![Page 16: PHEE April 2001 Meeting the Assessment Challenge: finding practical approaches Su White and Hugh Davis IAM Learning Technologies: ECS, The University of.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082714/5697c0071a28abf838cc5d7d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
PHEE April 2001
more project questions
creating test banks in a cost-effective manner
choosing themes (usefulness, greatest gains, ++)
classifying questions - level of skills , difficulty, cognitive skills, time required
subdividing question banks into sub themes
which themes/items suit CAA, which don't how to establish an effective peer review process
![Page 17: PHEE April 2001 Meeting the Assessment Challenge: finding practical approaches Su White and Hugh Davis IAM Learning Technologies: ECS, The University of.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082714/5697c0071a28abf838cc5d7d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
PHEE April 2001
looking to the future
greater involvement of existing expertise barriers and drivers for use and
dissemination distribution models continuation growth and maintenance of
the test bank

e3an - the benefits
identifying and spreading good practice evaluated trial use of automated
assessment on campus potential to trial new software (e.g. web
based QM perception) potential time savings students feedback improved (in time for
next QA / academic review
