    Digital assessments: A form of flexible learning


    This event has passed Register

    Event description

    Digital assessments have become significantly critical as part of the digital learning and teaching process, as technology provides not only teaching and learning opportunities but also assessment mechanisms, including productive feedback. With the rapid development of educational technology, e.g. the evolving of Artificial Intelligence, and the expansion of related research, digital assessments allow educators to create, design, and grade assessments at any time and anywhere, either in a summative or formative manner for the real-world challenges of the future workplaces.

    In the new reality of flexible learning, innovative forms of assessments can provide enhanced student engagement and empower staff as well as students in their daily academic practices. The aim of this session is to generate a discussion on the ways to develop pedagogically sound as well as student-centred digital assessments, which serves as a pre-2024 FLANZ conference conversation to invite submissions in this domain.
