Introduction:
Welcome to this lesson on assessment strategies. This lesson mainly focuses on the pressures that are mounting on post-secondary institutions to change, particularly about the way they deliver and assess one of their core activities, that is, teaching. When it comes to student assessment, we are mostly focused on the pen and paper tests or at best we talk of practical examinations. In the online learning scenario, we can adopt a range of alternative assessments that is the core of this lesson.
Objectives:
Upon completion of this lesson, you are expected to be able to:
Identify the new ways and methods of assessment of student learning online
Select appropriate strategies for student assessment in your course
