Purpose of assessment
6
Assessing 21st century skills

• students receive a strong message about the
  relative importance of knowledge recall versus
  the broader competencies such as approaches to
  problem solving, creativity, collaboration and
  social context through the weighting that
  teachers apply to the assessment task
• students will use these weightings to decide
  where to place their efforts in completing the
  task

Assessing 21st century skills

• for these new skills, our assessment designs need
  to accept multiple solutions to a problem or
  issue and provide feedback to students on their
  chosen strategies that have been used to solve
  the problem

Game based assessment

• many of the traditional forms of assessment we
  currently use in universities interrupt the flow
  of student engagement by separating the learning
  and assessment as time and location specific
  activities
• stealth assessment challenges many of our current
  concepts about learning and assessment by
  proposing that teachers design learning and
  assessment activities that are continuous and not
  separated by time or space
• evidence of learning and capability development
  could be collected continuously without
  interrupting the flow of students learning
