Tranformation story: Re-engineering Assessment Practices in Scottish Higher Education (REAP)

Year: 2007

Type: article

Abstract: The Re-Engineering Assessment Practices (REAP) project involved the implementation and evaluation of new models of assessment practice supported by technology in large cohort first-year classes across three Scottish Higher Education institutions – the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow Caledonian University Business School and the University of Glasgow. It also examined how to embed new assessment practices within institutional strategies and within quality enhancement processes. REAP was one of six projects funded by the Scottish Funding Council under its e-Learning Transformation Programme. Assessment in REAP is broadly defined to include tutor, peer and self-assessment and both formal and informal feedback processes. In practice, professionals not only assess their own learning but they often also form the criteria against which to evaluate progress. In the REAP project, the goal has been to re-design assessment in first-year modules to enhance the development of learner self- regulation and the skills required for lifelong learning
