ABSTRACT
This chapter explores how to design, implement and manage assessment. It aims to familiarise university teachers with the concept of ‘assessment for learning’ and to develop approaches that are ‘fit-for-purpose’, authentic and meaningful. Students learn most from the feedback they receive. This chapter also explores how to provide feedback that is motivating and formative in shaping students’ learning behaviours as well as determining their final assessment grades. Illustrative case studies show how the ideas proposed here can be adapted into practice in all disciplines.
