Pilot developments exploring the use of technologies and  functionality for innovative assessment and feedback practice. Focus will be on evaluating opportunities and challenges for integration with existing systems, best match with pedagogic requirements, adaptability and scalability. It is anticipated that the technologies explored will be a mix of cloud-based solutions and local installations. Schools and courses with a history of innovative approaches to assessment will be identified and invited to develop these pilots. The outcome of each pilot will be a decision either to end the pilot and close the service offering; or to expand the service offering beyond the pilot group. In the case of service expansion this may well need to be taken forward via a procurement, dependant on spend required. 

In year 1 we have interest from the Colleges already, in particular via the HSS College Undergraduate Learning and Teaching committee, in the UQMarkUp tool from the University of Queensland, Adaptive Comparitive Judgement (ACJ) and the Red Pen Tool from TAG Assessment, and myKnowledgemap. We would pick 1 or 2 of these tools and aim to run a pilot for 1 year.

TEL014 will be investigating the use of Adaptive Learning technology in conjuction with the provider CogBooks.
