“The Assessing Student Learning project sought an example of assessment best practice that
recognised the importance of evolving assessment practices across the year levels: from first year
assessment, when students have their entire undergraduate studies before them, to final year, the
brink of professional practice. Such an example is provided below by Stuart Palmer of Deakin
University. Stuart Palmer offers an excellent example of a carefully designed, strategic assessment
regime that is thoroughly integrated with his teaching and learning goals.” – Professor Richard
James, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic and Undergraduate) and Deputy Provost, University of
Melbourne
“I was delighted six years ago to discover Stuart Palmer's work on authenticity on assessment…At
the time, I was leading a Scottish universities' enhancement project on innovative assessment, and it
was a joy to find such a lucid and thoughtful exemplar of the strategic design of assessment tasks
across a degree programme to facilitate the integration of knowledge and skills, and to ensure that
students were well-prepared for post-graduation professional practice. Examples of such initiatives
are rare gems…I therefore highlighted Dr. Palmer's pioneering work in one of the four evidence-
informed guides that emerged from the project, and took every opportunity to sing its praises in the
many workshops we subsequently ran in Scotland and elsewhere in the UK.” – Emeritus Professor
Dai Hounsell, former Vice Principal and Professor of Higher Education at the University of
Edinburgh.

Social media data in product design
Large quantities of data obtained easily
New reviews are typically frequently added
Data are from real, post-purchase experiences
(rather than hypothetical purchasing scenarios)
Typically free/unstructured responses
Generally provided without incentives

The future – fitting in with the School
Currently have work in progress with School staff
Already provide methodological advice to School staff and students
122 co-authored publications -
- 40% have a current or former School member on the by-line
- 42% have at least one female co-author
- Including technical, professional, divisional, library and sessional staff
I’m confident that I have methods that will be helpful to others
Have been a Faculty mentor for the last five years
38
The future – where I’m heading
Engineering education
STEM education – realistic representations of the ‘E’
Graduate employability and outcomes – implications for curriculum
Social media in engineering – practice and education
Technology and health
STEM and diversity
Frequency domain and multi-scale methods
‘Boring’ stats & modelling – so much data, not so much critical analysis
39
The future – potential funding sources
Some things currently on the go
Working with Education on STEM Ed has been very productive
The REDI SRC has an annual series of grants – funded Linkage pilot
Philanthropic trusts – e.g., James N Kirby Foundation
‘Industry’ – EngAust, EEA, ACED, Professionals Australia
Other education funding – ACEN, Origin Foundation
Deakin Sources – SRGS, DURN

  • 6. “The Assessing Student Learning project sought an example of assessment best practice that recognised the importance of evolving assessment practices across the year levels: from first year assessment, when students have their entire undergraduate studies before them, to final year, the brink of professional practice. Such an example is provided below by Stuart Palmer of Deakin University. Stuart Palmer offers an excellent example of a carefully designed, strategic assessment regime that is thoroughly integrated with his teaching and learning goals.” – Professor Richard James, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic and Undergraduate) and Deputy Provost, University of Melbourne “I was delighted six years ago to discover Stuart Palmer's work on authenticity on assessment…At the time, I was leading a Scottish universities' enhancement project on innovative assessment, and it was a joy to find such a lucid and thoughtful exemplar of the strategic design of assessment tasks across a degree programme to facilitate the integration of knowledge and skills, and to ensure that students were well-prepared for post-graduation professional practice. Examples of such initiatives are rare gems…I therefore highlighted Dr. Palmer's pioneering work in one of the four evidence- informed guides that emerged from the project, and took every opportunity to sing its praises in the many workshops we subsequently ran in Scotland and elsewhere in the UK.” – Emeritus Professor Dai Hounsell, former Vice Principal and Professor of Higher Education at the University of Edinburgh. 6
