Student Agency and Engagement (SEDA Series)

Responding to the ongoing challenges of understanding and improving assessment and feedback in higher education, this must-read book steps back and asks 'what if' questions in order to unlock some of the systemic problems of assessment and feedback, shifting the debate to focus on students' experience at a programme-level. Based on the 'Transforming the Experience of Students through Assessment' (TESTA) project, this book introduces a different way of thinking about assessment and feedback. It considers a method for understanding the impact of assessment and feedback on student learning and provides practical insights about changing programme assessment patterns to foster student agency and engagement. Giving impetus to change the way academics design assessment and feedback, it invites academics and educational leaders into more transparent, open and shared decision-making about assessment and feedback beyond the module-level. This key title is designed to support academics and educational leaders to make sustainable and systemic improvements to the pedagogy of assessment. It expands on good principles, practices, and theories about how students learn from assessment and feedback by paying attention to a programme-level perspective of the student experience--
