5. e-learning & e-assessment - advanced Current use of e-Assessment Industrialisation of large volume, multiple choice style papers Use of adaptive tools to pinpoint skills and requirements Diagnostics to develop personal learning plans Increased feedback to aid learner Greater use of Simulation based assessment

6. e-learning & e-assessment - advanced The drive towards e-Assessment Where is the drive coming from? 14-19 White Paper and Skills White Paper Awarding bodies (marking issues) Skills checking and initial assessments (adult skills) Training & Development Agency for schools and LLUK Industry (increased assessments – skills needs) Higher Education

7. e-learning & e-assessment - advanced Benefits Ability to use interactive items or simulations Ability to offer assessments on demand Provision of feedback to aid the learner Adaptive assessments can enable learners to repeat questions over and over until understood can include hints and help when learners are stuck can provide rich, detailed feedback on where and why an answer was incorrect can automatically link to e-learning support materials Can collect all the evidence for a whole group and enable the teacher to customise her/his teaching programme
