Confident Assessment in Higher Education



September 2022 | 216 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd
Your perfect companion to building confident assessment in teaching and learning in higher education.

Assessment is a central part of teaching and learning in higher education and an area in which many university teachers lack confidence.

Designed to work across academic disciplines, this is a practical, theory-informed resource for anyone in the higher education sector. It offers an in-depth view of assessment, exploring current practice and contemporary challenges. It offers guidance on contextual assessment design and the teaching that can support this, alongside a deep dive on marking, feedback and common assessment challenges.

The final third of the book offers practical templates for a wide range of common assessment types including case studies, competence portfolios, essays and dissertations.

Rachel Forsyth is an educational developer who works at Lund University, Sweden.

This is a very useful read for both Higher Education (HE) teaching staff and students, especially those studying for a career in HE. One of the most relevant points about the book is its practical dimension informed with theoretical foundations. This allows practitioners to build on the theoretical foundations to legitimate practical decisions and enhance understanding of approaches to evaluation and the repertoire of evaluation strategies and techniques. The straightforward style of presentation makes this book an enjoyable read and a useful reference on evaluation in HE.

Very useful for planning H.E. courses rather than for students
