Reinforcement Activity

Teachers face challenges when assessing large classes, such as avoiding shallow learning, providing individual feedback, fairly assessing diverse students, and managing large amounts of assessment data. Some ways to overcome these challenges while adhering to high-quality assessment principles include using fewer cumulative assessments with more formative feedback, supervised group work, online tutors and discussion boards, written explanations for multiple-choice answers, considering different disciplines or viewpoints in assessments, assigning students to tutorials based on discipline, and having teachers ensure student aims are compatible after reviewing assessment data with officials.

Reinforcement Activity

Teachers, in some instances, face the challenges of assessing large classes such as:
1. Avoiding assessment that encourages shallow learning
2. Providing high quality, individual feedback
3. Fairly assessing diverse mix of students
4. Managing the large volume of assessment data
Discuss four ways on how to overcome these challenges while at the same time adhering to
each of the principles of high-quality assessment. Use the matrix below.

feedback discussions. Use online products that provide hints/help and
feedback. Write a written justification and explanation for
high-scoring responses on multiple-choice tests.
3 When possible, ask students to think about how concepts
. relate to their discipline area in assessment tasks (accepting
Fairly assessing diverse mix of more than one "right" answer) and assign students to
students tutorials based on their discipline/course, rather than
randomly. Ensure that tutorials follow lectures (rather than
vice versa), and that assessment-related issues are
discussed and addressed in these smaller groups.
4 In order to develop clear, quantifiable, relevant, and
