On this page, you will find links to a set of brief discussion and guidance papers.

 

The papers will discuss and guide how, at CIHE, we will:

• Operationalise policy

• Enhance student learning experience and success

• Drive our pedagogy with the current scholarship of teaching and learning

• Support continued improvements to assessment policy and practice at CIHE

• Facilitate academic quality assurance

• Support professional development of academic staff

 

The papers will also form

• a point of discussion for the Academic Board’s input into CIHE academic policy regarding assessment, and

• a dissemination/professional development mechanism for academic staff to develop and share a collaborative and scholarly-engaged approach to assessment.

 

The Dean is writing the initial 3-4 papers. When operational, staff will be invited to work on the Assessment at CIHE papers as a professional development/collaborative activity that can also be used to facilitate the development of their own research focused on Teaching and Learning.

 

The initial 4 topics will be:

 

• Criteria and Standards

• Rubrics

• Feedback

• Industry involvement in assessment (based on the Dean’s participation at the September 2017 TEQSA assessment forum)
