Measuring and Assessing Learning
Most people probably think of measuring and assessing learning as tests, assignments/course grades, and rubrics. However, assessment can be more than these procedures. In this chapter, feedback, constructive alignment, and authentic assessment will be considered.
The learning outcomes in this chapter are as follows:
- Define learning assessment and connect it to higher education and technology.
- Analyze and interpret the importance of feedback for learning assessment in a modern context.
- Compare and contrast how constructive alignment may be a reflective practice of learning.
- Critique authentic assessment and its impact on academic integrity.
