Target Audience: SBS Academic & Administrative Staff

In this session we explore some of the tools in Myplace that are designed to support formative and summative assessment. First we'll take a look at assignments and quizzes which are the two most common practices for summative assessment. Then we'll consider the workshop, forum and blog activities, which are highly collaborative and can be used in both formative and summative assessment or to facilitate online learning communities. We will cover setting up these activities and tailoring them to your needs.

The topics covered are:

  • The benefits of online assessment.
  • Assessment activities explained.
  • Setting up Assignments, Quizzes, Forums and Blogs.

By the end of the session, you should be able to create assessment activities, identify at least one collaborative activity that matches your teaching style, and balance your formative and summative assessment.
