Transforming Assessment in a Digital Era
Technology context, next generations students, interactions, learning-oriented assessment, new mindsets
The digital futures learning environment provides opportunities to improve the student learning experience through flexibility in time, pace, place, mode of study, teaching approach and forms of assessment.
• Assessment for a digital future needs to place learning at the centre of assessment and reconfigure assessment design so that the learning function is emphasized
• Learning-oriented assessment needs to include: assessment tasks as learning tasks, student involvement in the assessment processes and forward-looking feedback.
• Formative assessment in a digital future incorporates feedback as feed-forward so that students receive feedback that can be acted on to improve learning.

Empowering active learning of higher education students through space, pedago...Mike KEPPELL
Learning spaces need to encompass formal teaching spaces, informal learning spaces and virtual learning and teaching spaces. The combination of space, pedagogy and technology needs to be seamlessly integrated to support 21st Century learning. Learning spaces must utilise new technology and flexibility to enable active learning and meet student expectations and accommodate different teaching approaches. In this session, Professor Mike Keppell will reflect on different institutional approaches in addressing student learning by choreographing space, technology and pedagogy to achieve Institutional goals. Professor Keppell is an internationally respected academic and has held leadership roles across six universities. In this session he will to discuss his experience in transformational teaching and learning spaces that require the blend of technological tools and pedagogical practices to meet teacher and learner expectations. Case studies from different universities will be presented in the points below:
" Pedagogy, space and technology: What's new? How have the three elements evolved? How do they all relate
" Swinburne University of Technology Learning Space Case Study
" European Learning space Case study
" Malaysian University Case Study

• How learning and teaching has changed in a connected world
o Active learning
o Learning spaces
o Central role of technology
• Innovative teaching in a connected world
o Blended learning
o Authentic assessment
o Professional development
• The knowledge, skills and attitudes teachers need to thrive in a connected world
o Digital fluency
o Seamless teaching
o Assuring best practice in technology-enhanced environments
o Technology affordances
o Scholarship
o Learning analytics
• The knowledge, skills and attitudes learners need to thrive in a connected world
o Learners will need a toolkit encompassing digital literacies, seamless learning, self-regulated learning, learning-oriented assessment, lifelong learning, and flexible learning pathways. This toolkit will enable the learner to tackle the complexities of the learning landscape that is becoming increasingly digital, connected, and ambiguous.
Presentation from one of the keynote presentations from the iMoot2013.
I Moodle, they Moodle, we all Moodle together!
A focus on Learning with Moodle.
Those of us at the iMoot know Moodle. We are probably already sold on what it can do and the benefits to education.
However, for everyday teachers who use Moodle because their organisation provides it, the term Moodle is often used as a noun - a title for a system that can be used to store content and has a wide range of features to support learning (but are not necessarily used).
This keynote looks at Moodle as a verb instead of a noun. Not the verb to ‘meander or tinker away with something’ but as a ‘doing word’ to use in the same context as the term ‘to learn’. We will look at how we can structure Moodle activities for learning rather than content and look at how we promote it to others so that it does get used for learning.
The presentation will show practical examples to illustrate some good (and not so good) practice.
Trends come and go, but quality education will last a lifetime. In edWeb community, Blended Learning’s, latest webinar, attendees learned what best practice blended learning trends are, and how they can help support personalization of learning for each unique student. Webinar presenters, Tom Vander Ark, author of “Getting Smart: How Digital Learning is Changing the World” and CEO of Getting Smart, an education advocacy firm, and Tim Hudson, experienced educator and Senior Curriculum Designer for DreamBox Learning discussed effective blended learning approaches that benefit students and teachers. They shared ideas for how to use these strategies to support student engagement and achievement, particularly in elementary math.
Webinar attendees gained knowledge about many blended learning topics, including:
Emerging blended learning trends
Teaching and learning in an increasingly mobile world
How blended learning can boost elementary math achievement
The impact of blended learning on schools and the teaching profession

2. What is ICT?
•ICT refers to create,
store, retrieve,
manipulate, transmit
and receive digital
information.
3.
4. Who is a Teacher/Educator
"Who dares to teach must never
cease to learn." - John Cotton Dana
• Teacher or Educator is person
who gives you not only the
knowledge but also inspiration and
motivation to live a meaningful life.
5. Changes in Teaching Learning Process
in the Present Era
Traditional Paradigm
• Teacher controls and directs
all aspects of learning
• Knowledge transmitter, primary source
of information, content expert and
source of all answers
• Passive recipient of information
• Learning as a solitary activity
• Reproducing information and
Knowledge
New Age Paradigm
• Teacher gives students more options
and responsibilities for their own
learning
• Learning facilitator, collaborator, coach,
mentor, knowledge navigator and
colearner
• Active participant in the learning
process
• Learning collaboratively with others
• Producing and sharing knowledge,
participating at times as expert
6. Changes in Teaching Learning Process in
Present Era
Traditional Paradigm
• Emphasis on analytical linear/
convergent thinking (left br)
with logic as digital brain
• Instruction focused paradigm
• Content driven & teacher
centred
• Didactic/Informative models
of teaching
• Lecture, listening, reading,
rote learning
• Norm referenced evaluation
New Age Paradigm
• Strives on whole brain divergent
thinking with arts, emotions and
creativity
• Learning focused paradigm
• Process driven & learner centred
• Constructivist models of teaching
• Self directed, Creative, Collaborative
learning
• Criterion referenced evaluation
7. Shifting Role of the Teachers
in the Present Scenario
• Teacher as a facilitator
• The role model/ an inspirational ideal
• Recognize herself as a professional
• Teacher to find her own teaching style
• Teacher as a participant in the learners efforts
• Be sensitive to student's needs and problems
• Democratic & creative environment Provider
• Teaching and guiding students according to their educational requirements and abilities i.e.
• What we know, What we want to know, What we have learned, How we know it.
Teacher should promote and adapt herself in the changing
scenario to take the responsibility for the betterment of the students and society.
8. Why do we Need ICT?
•In education 87% of information enters our brain through eyes,
9% by ears and 4% through other senses. So, visual aids gain much
attention of students more than verbal teaching.
•The role of ICT in the education and society is becoming more and
more important and this importance will continue to grow and
develop in this century.
9. Why do we Need ICT?
•Developing Life Skills (Problem-Solving, Decision Making, Critical
Thinking, Creative Thinking, Communication Skills, Self-
Awareness, Stress Management, Empathy, Interpersonal
Relationship etc.) – competencies that help people function well in
their environments.
•Updating self that saves lot of extra efforts
•Helpful in finding, sharing, collecting, contributing information very
fast
10. Why do we Need ICT?
• ICT is not only an essential tool for teachers in their day to day work,
but also offers them opportunities for their own professional development.
• The face of classroom is changing. In conventional teaching most of
the time is consumed for the input output and less time left for the process.
But in teaching with ICT the input and output time is reduced and process
time is increased.
• When the process time is increased, time of students’ activities,
discussion, correlation with other subjects, brainstorming and learning etc
will increase.
11. Major Educational Practices relating to ICTs in
Higher Education
There are following common educational practices relating to ICTs for
quality enhancement in this modern era of science and technology.
1. E-Learning
2. Blended Learning
3. Interactive Whiteboard
4. Mobile Learning
5. Flipped Classroom Learning
6. Online Collaborative Learning
12. Blended Learning:
• Blended Learning: Introducing technology
alone cannot change the teaching and
learning process.
Blended learning is the combination of
multiple ways and content delivery
mechanisms.
• In blended learning, essentially, a student
learns with a blend of self-paced online and
classroom instruction.
• Blended learning programmes often use e-
textbooks to allow their students to have
unlimited access to their learning material.
They include classroom learning, online
learning as well as one to one learning and
their combination.
• Cost benefits aside, students say that they
enjoy the benefits of blending both online
and in-classroom learning styles.
• Blended learning is a student-centred
learning approach in which students
influence the content, activities, materials
and pace of learning.
• This learning model places the students at
the centre of the learning process.
13. Flipped Classroom Learning:
• Flipped Classroom Learning:
It is an instructional strategy and type of
blended learning that reverses the
traditional learning environment by
delivering instructional content,
often online, outside of the
classroom.
• Flipping helps students of all abilities
to excel. It reverses the traditional
learning dynamics completely.
• Blended learning brings together
elements of both traditional and
flipped classrooms.
• Flipped classroom is one of the most
innovative methods of teaching that
has evolved in the recent times.
