The document discusses using online tests and microcredentialing through badges to improve assessment for learning in bioscience courses. It proposes developing a series of online tests aligned to learning outcomes and using badges to encourage mastery-level learning. Students would earn badges for passing exams or completing activities at a 75% mastery level, with the goal of focusing on individual learning and making accomplishments visible. Feedback indicated students found the integrated online tests and badges intellectually stimulating and supportive of learning. While some wanted more guidance on progress, many praised the personalized feedback. The approach aimed to support deep learning over surface learning.
