Assessment
Sub themes include
- The nature of assessment. How and what should we be assessing in a modern curriculum?
- Feedback

The book of abstracts is available for viewing and it’s a great mix of panels, presentations and workshops. Printed copies will NOT be available apart from reference copies at the registration desk. The schedule of events is available here as a separate document.
Our keynote speaker this year was Associate Professor Michael Henderson (Monash) who has recently completed an OLT project on feedback with David Boud. Michael has a lot to say about feedback and you can read a taster of it in an article in the Conversation. He will challenge us to examine our practices in a new light.
