TU Dublin Compendium of Assessment Methods: from Students’ Perspectives
The TU Dublin TU Dublin Compendium of Assessment Methods: from Students' Perspective was launched at the Learning, Teaching and Assessment Showcase on 19 January 2024.
The Compendium of Assessment Methods is designed to accompany our new Assessment Handbook and to provide the student voice within the assessment design process.
Nine N-TUTORR students champions (Robert, Anissa, Damola, Chris, Jake, Fatima, Cornellia, Teniola and Hannah) were involved in writing the publication and it was edited by Dr. Jen Harvey.
The Compendium includes a rich variety of valid alternatives to more traditional forms of assessment such as unseen examinations, essays and reports that can be used to support and evidence students’ learning across our disciplinary programmes. The strength of this publication is that it has been written by students who have researched each method and are presenting their perspective on the assessment process.
Each method is described in turn, what it assesses, the benefits and the disadvantages from both the teaching and student perspectives as well as student opinions about the use of these techniques in practice. The TU Dublin methods were shortlisted by the student writing team who also decided it was important to include Universal Design for Learning, Equality Diversity and Inclusion, Academic Integrity and Employability ratings and implications of such with the assessment design process.
