The HEA Resources database has lots on assessment,
including
Race (2001) A briefing on self-peer and
group assessment at
http://www.heacademy.ac.uk/resources.asp?process=full_record§ion=generic&id=9
Depending on the subject groups you're working with, several of the Subject Centres have stuff on SA in different disciplinary contexts - See eg http://www.swap.ac.uk/learning/Assessment2.asp or more scholarly articles like Falchikov "Involving students in assessment" Psychology Learning and Teaching, 3(2), 102-108 (available online at http://www.psychology.heacademy.ac.uk/docs/pdf/p20040519_falchikovpdf.pdf )
Lots of other links on our Assessment page at http://staffcentral.brighton.ac.uk/clt/resources/Assessment.htm but Boud is probably still your best bet - don't have it to hand but I think there's a good (photocopyable) summary of benefits somewhere near the beginning....
best wishes

Subject: Self Assessment
A fairly simple Friday request! I'm looking for materials on self-assessment with the emphasis on why it is useful for students. I discuss this with students but have been asked for some printed materials. Does anyone have any materials I can use?-- Vikki -------------------------------------------- Vikki Illingworth Student Development Coordinator University of Bradford Telephone: 01274 235976 Email: [log in to unmask] Website: www.brad.ac.uk/admin/studev
