Part 2: Assessment & Feedback

This session is optional but highly recommended for new teaching or learning support staff who are involved in assessment and provision of feedback.

University students are focused on assessment, and assessment is a key driver for learning. Assessment both measures learning and informs future learning. This module will introduce you to some of the fundamental principles of assessment, including the importance of aligning assessment with the Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) of a subject and course. It focuses on how assessment and feedback can foster learning and enable your students to meet the goals of their course of study. On completion of this module, you should be able to:

  1. Recognise the importance of ILOs to the design of assessment
  2. Align your assessment practices with La Trobe University’s assessment policy and procedures
  3. Identify well-designed rubrics and improve your use of them
  4. Become familiar with and develop effective strategies for providing feedback for learning
  5. Embed academic integrity into every aspect of the assessment and feedback process
