Purvis, Alison J.; Aspden, Liz J.; Bannister, Philip W.; Helm, Paul A. – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2011
A level 6 module was developed in order to implement innovative assessment strategies and encourage higher level learning. The module tutor (one of this paper's authors) was seconded from teaching duties (40%) to the University's academic development unit to work on the module transformation. The rationale for the redesign of the assessment…

Sangwin, Christopher J.; Naismith, Laura – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2008
We present principles for the design of an online system to support computer algebra enabled questions for use within the teaching and learning of mathematics in higher education. The introduction of a computer algebra system (CAS) into a computer aided assessment (CAA) system affords sophisticated response processing of student provided answers.…

McCormick, Robert – Curriculum Journal, 2004
The role of pupil assessment in ICT is often seen by teachers as problematic. This article will explore the relationship of the two and will argue that research in assessment has not kept up with the opportunities offered by ICT. Conversely, some of the new developments in "assessment for learning" have not yet found their way into ICT.…

Hobbs, D. J.; Taylor, R. J. – 1996
This paper describes a project which created a set of World Wide Web (WWW) pages documenting the state of the art in educational multimedia design; a prototype WWW-based multimedia teaching tool--a podiatry test using HTML forms, 24-bit color images and MPEG video--was also designed, developed, and evaluated. The project was conducted between…
