This JISC publication published in 2010 is aimed at those in higher and further education who design assessment and feedback for their learners. The guide draws on recent JISC reports and case studies from different contexts and modes of learning to explore the relationship between technology-enhanced assessment and feedback practices and meaningful, well-supported learning experiences.

Effective Assessment in a Digital Age complements Effective Practice in a Digital Age, the 2009 JISC guide to learning and teaching with technology, and Effective practice with e-Assessment (JISC 2007) by focusing on the potential enhancement to assessment and feedback practices offered by both purpose-designed and more familiar technologies.

Supplementary online resources provide with opportunities to explore in more depth ways of harnessing technology to enhance assessment and feedback practices.  These are available on the JISC website.  You can also download the publication from this link or browse it online in the widget below.
