e-Assessments in Tertiary Education
Redefining Innovative Assessment in the Digital Age
Optimising feedback for student motivation & engagement
Assessment feedback has been an evolving construct used in education to enrich, inform, and complement the mainstream teaching process. Using feedback for motivation however, has been underutilised and undervalued throughout this process and further highlighted with the introduction of electronic teaching and assessments.
This workshop will provide insight into the various methodologies, opportunities and best practice for feedback for motivation in the e-Assessment setting. It aims to assist educators and practitioners to identify the benefits of feedback for motivation through the OpenMentor model and will explore the methods in which to support educator feedback to students via digitally assisted technologies for formative e-Assessments.
Attend this workshop and learn:
- How to provide and receive praise for e-Assessment feedback based on a tried and tested structured framework
- Practical methods to communicate motivational feedback via technology on e-Assessments

But the challenge remains: How do we build bridges to new digital shores?
