Programme details will be published over the coming weeks. What Can We Learn About Assessment from Video Games? from Kenji Lamb on Vimeo With an audience drawn from across the country and beyond, it’s a perfect opportunity to meet with others who share an interest in e-Assessment, learn what they’re doing with the technology and share your own experiences.ĭerek Robertson’s talk on how video games can teach us a thing or two about assesment: The details of these can be found on the Programme section of the site – numbers again will be limited, so book early if you want to participate.

You did ask us for more workshops last year, so we’re also going to be running three ‘masterclass’ CPD sessions on the afternoon before the main conference. Numbers will be limited for each session, so make sure you sign up early so not to miss out! Workshops have always been popular at the conference – and this year’s are bound to be no exception. The seminar sessions have been selected to showcase just how far e-Assessment has travelled along an occasionally rocky, but ultimately rewarding path and to present a glimpse into what the future might hold. Our third conference is rapidly shaping up to be our most ambitious and exciting event so far – with keynote speakers who are sure to inspire, stimulate and challenge your views on this evolving area of education: This year, eAssessment Scotland tackles the issue of ‘Authentic Assessment’ and whether we can improve the experience of learners by creating measures of skills and knowledge that more closely mirror what happens in the real world.

Welcome to the eAssessment Scotland page – home to the largest conference dedicated to exploring the benefits of technology-enhanced assessment practices in the UK.
