Assessment in Higher Education (AHE) Conference: CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS

 

Assessment for the Longer Term: Higher education uses assessment to develop and validate graduate attributes. Graduates make critical judgments of their own and others’ work in authentic contexts. The AHE one day conference in July 2020 in Manchester will focus on research and innovative practice around assessment for the longer term.

 

image003This is the call for proposed contributions to the one day international Assessment in Higher Education conference. This research and academic development event is a forum for critical debate of research and innovation focused on assessment and feedback practice and policy. The conference is to be held at the Macdonald Manchester Hotel, Manchester, UK on 2 July 2020. The deadline for submission of proposed contributions is 20 January 2020.

 

The keynote speaker is Professor David Boud of Deakin University, Melbourne.
