- 4. Importance of Assessment and Feedback ‘ Assessment is a central feature of teaching and the curriculum. It powerfully frames how students learn and what students achieve. It is one of the most of significant influences on students’ experience of higher education and all that they gain from it. The reason for an explicit focus on improving assessment practice is the high impact it has on the quality of the learning.’ Professor David Boud & associates, 2010

Technology-enhanced A&F ‘ It is the learners and teachers who ultimately determine the formative effects of engaging with technologies, but technologies can shape the potential for this to happen.’ Pachler et al (2009), Scoping a vision for formative assessment, project report for JISC ‘ As technology continues to develop in all spheres of life, this not only increases potential use within the lecture room and beyond – but also our expectations that this will happen.’ National Student Forum Annual Report, 2009 ‘ I like seeing my feedback online as it keeps it private and allows me to store it for future use without worrying about losing it.’ Foundation degree student, Loughborough College

Editor's Notes
- Summary of the National Student Survey Results 2010 Executive Summary: The University has failed to maintain or improve on the 2009 satisfaction levels in relation to Assessment and Feedback and given gradual improvements in this section in the sector, the variance between Ulster and the sector overall has increased in this area. In the qualitative results, very few positive comments were received and the majority of negative comments related to the lack of feedback , speed of feedback or quality of feedback . (Academic Development and Enhancement Committee)
