C3 Draft assessment resources
As you draft your online assessment resources you will need to balance a lot of issues.
- Parallel with the development of the tasks you may need to develop a series of guides and tools. Consider whether these may also be available online.
- Double check that your online tasks have addressed the competencies or learning outcomes.
- Keep in mind the principles of assessment (fair, reliable, valid and flexible).
- Consider how the online medium can contribute to the development of key competencies such as communication, problem solving, teamwork, collaboration.
- Consider whether you need to offer alternatives to online tasks for those who may not be able to access or manage the medium.
- You should storyboard any complex online multimedia interactions.
Lastly when you have completed a draft you should make sure you have the tasks validated.
