Course aim

To critique and engage with future oriented assessment and learning practices that are emerging locally, nationally and globally in different education sectors; to advance policy understanding of educational practitioners and leaders with respect to assessment, learning and resilience.

Course content

Students will develop the advanced knowledge and skills in the evaluation and interpretation of existing and emerging practices by drawing upon the conceptual tools provided by cutting edge national and international research on validity, reliability, transparency, equity/fairness, accountability and manageability. Students will use knowledge and skills of assessment and learning to engage in a deep and critical discussion of policy frameworks devised to deliver the learning intentions and outcomes as defined by different stakeholders, such as politicians, professional practitioners and parents. Students will explore selected national and international policies of assessment and learning, such that they will critically contextualise existing and emerging practices of learning and assessment. Students will propose an explore their own case studies in the move to develop expert knowledge and skills embracing their own interests in didactics and policy.
