EDUC365: Educational Assessment

Measurement and assessment are central to education as they inform students, parents, teachers and the community of the processes and outcomes of teaching and learning. Australia, as elsewhere, has witnessed the increase in the use of outcomes and standards over the last decade, which is manifest in curriculum, pedagogy, assessment and reporting. This unit provides students with an understanding of how to use assessment information to make informed decisions about curriculum design, the process of teaching and learning, and student progress.
