The Assessment Tomorrow 2009 Edinburgh Conference 
www.scotland2009.assessmenttomorrow.com 

11th November 2009 at the Grosvenor Hilton Hotel, Edinburgh

 There has been much discussion recently about the Assessment is for 
Learning agenda and how best to reap the benefits of this coherent 
framework for assessment. A framework in which a wealth of evidence of 
learning can be gathered and interpreted to best meet the needs of learners, 
their parents and teachers, as well as school managers and others with 
responsibility for ensuring that education in Scotland is as good as it can be. 
Technology provides a key tool for managing this process and the 4th annual 
Assessment Tomorrow conference will focus the latest achievements, 
developments, innovation and good practice within formative and summative 
assessment, and how the technology supports those requirements.

We are delighted to be collaborating with SQA and Learning and Teaching 
Scotland, who will provide the keynote presentations. An exciting line up of 
speakers from education and industry, including practitioners, suppliers and 
HMIe Scotland, will give expert guidance and insight. The conference will be 
chaired by Professor Cliff Beevers. Emeritus Professor of Mathematics at 
Heriot-Watt University and among the speakers will be
