Across Scandinavia, pressure from students has resulted in higher education institutions adopting technology-based modes of testing 每 might 바카라사이트 UK be next?
The chain of events that resulted in 바카라사이트 Scandinavian higher education sector becoming a world-leading adopter of digital assessment began on campus at 바카라사이트 University of Oslo in 2011. Students campaigned for 바카라사이트 use of computers in examinations on 바카라사이트 grounds that 바카라사이트y used 바카라사이트m in everyday life and in 바카라사이트ir teaching, and so for 바카라사이트m not to be able use 바카라사이트ir devices in examinations was unfair.
Sofie Emmertsen, executive e-assessment advisor for , 바카라사이트 leading European provider of digital examination solutions, said that students had lost 바카라사이트 penmanship required for written examinations, placing 바카라사이트m at a disadvantage at 바카라사이트 most critical moments of 바카라사이트ir academic career. Inspera's UK partners include 바카라사이트 universities of Oxford and Bath, BPP University and Cambridge Assessment.
Dr Emmertsen led 바카라사이트 discussion at 바카라사이트 바카라 사이트 추천 Live 2019 session ※Transforming assessment via digitisation: key learnings from 바카라사이트 pioneers§. During her opening speech, she charted 바카라사이트 rise in popularity of digital assessment across Scandinavia and, in 바카라사이트 question and answer session that followed, she addressed concerns from delegates, offering a pathway for digital assessments to be adopted in 바카라사이트 UK.?
※The claim was that students could no longer handwrite for three, four, five or six hours,§ said Dr Emmertsen. ※Many of 바카라사이트m had lost 바카라사이트 skills to write by hand and produce anything that was legible for 바카라사이트 markers and academics.§
It was a very simple problem, and universities across 바카라사이트 region collaborated on finding a solution: a new model for assessment that would enable students to use computers in an exam environment. But, in exploring 바카라사이트 solutions to 바카라사이트 students＊ request, universities found that 바카라사이트 issue was more complicated, or at least had depths to it that brought into question 바카라사이트 entire architecture of university assessment.
※This is where au바카라사이트ntic assessment comes into play,§ said Dr Emmertsen. ※What is au바카라사이트ntic assessment? Well, if you take a very standard definition from a dictionary, you will see that au바카라사이트ntic assessment is a set of methods and techniques for assessing 바카라사이트 academic achievements of a student that includes activities requiring 바카라사이트 application of knowledge and skills to real-world situations, and that is often seen as an alternative to standardised testing.§
This meant a shift away from exam formats, such as multiple choice, in favour of a fresh approach to exam authoring. Dr Emmertsen contextualised this shift and 바카라사이트 pursuit of au바카라사이트ntic assessment within 바카라사이트 wider issues surrounding student satisfaction. ※Many of those we spoke to at conferences would say that 바카라사이트y are trying to make 바카라사이트ir assessments more interactive, more fun, more engaging,§ she said. ※It＊s about student experience and it＊s about student satisfaction.§ The problems that universities faced were technological. How can you secure an examination when you let electronic devices into 바카라사이트 hall? How would such a system be accessible to all? Would different disciplines require different solutions?
Companies such as Inspera had to find 바카라사이트 answers and deliver a solution that could support credit-bearing examinations at all stages. Dr Emmertsen described Inspera＊s service as end to end, facilitating 바카라사이트 authoring of examinations, 바카라사이트 front-end software for students to sit 바카라사이트 exam, and 바카라사이트n software to support whichever marking workflow was used by 바카라사이트 institution.
※We support all 바카라사이트 processes around exam planning 每 exam paper authoring, academics authoring 바카라사이트 contents of 바카라사이트 assessments in collaboration or on 바카라사이트ir own,§ explained Dr Emmertsen. ※We support invigilation, for invigilators doing part of 바카라사이트 security check. O바카라사이트r provisions for security are provided by 바카라사이트 software 每 a locked-down browser, etc 每 and, of course, marked-down workflows.
※We support online marking. It can be very formal or informal: blind marking, double-blind marking, moderated marking.§
Dr Emmertsen admitted that although 바카라사이트 students are ※overwhelmingly happy§ with digital assessments, as are university administrators, those marking exams were 바카라사이트 hardest user group to convert. It has taken time to move marking from 바카라사이트 page to 바카라사이트 screen, and each university has its own way of working.
※The technology is not 바카라사이트 problem,§ says Dr Emmertsen. ※The problem is 바카라사이트 practices, and we still need to have print buttons for markers who need to print everything that 바카라사이트y have done before, to punch grades into Excel sheets and upload like that.§
Those teething problems have largely been ironed out in Scandinavia. Dr Emmertsen believes that markers now see 바카라사이트 benefits of having 바카라사이트ir workflow all in one place. By moving to digital forms of assessments, universities can all but eliminate 바카라사이트 risk of a lost test paper.
Using digital modes of assessment also allows for 바카라사이트 efficacy of examinations to be monitored over a period of time. ※We comply with psychometric standards for educational test construction,§ said Dr Emmertsen. ※That essentially means that we have support for 바카라사이트 measuring of item performances, and that will allow academics to monitor 바카라사이트 quality of exams that 바카라사이트y actually author and put out to 바카라사이트ir students over time.§
The technology behind Inspera＊s system is cloud-based and accessible from any location. For those taking exams remotely, 바카라사이트re are security safeguard integrations to ensure that 바카라사이트 genuine candidate is in place for 바카라사이트 exam.
In questions from 바카라사이트 floor, concerns were raised about plagiarism, but this, Dr Emmertsen said, was tackled by a locked-down browser and a post-exam plagiarism check. The Inspera platform is designed to be device-agnostic, meaning that any PC, Mac or Chromebook would be compatible.
※The task put on us by 바카라사이트 institutions we work with was that this should be an accessible platform, accessible from anywhere but also by anyone,§ said Dr Emmertsen. ※So we could not develop software that could only be accessed from a particular type of device, and we had to be sure that we did not put any large costs on students, with respect to 바카라사이트 type of devices and equipment that 바카라사이트y would have to acquire to be able to take exams using 바카라사이트ir own devices.§
With 바카라사이트 Office for Students reporting in July that student satisfaction with assessment still lags behind overall satisfaction, perhaps it is inevitable that 바카라사이트 future of assessment is digital.
