18 June, Univ. of Surrey

Unravelling Assessment and Feedback Literacy is a symposium aimed at encouraging in-depth discussions around the conceptualisation and enactment of assessment and feedback literacy in higher education. The day will involve the sharing of, and support for, developing pedagogic practice relating to assessment and feedback literacy. An HEA facilitated panel discussion aimed at consolidating the key themes emerging from the symposium and the identification of future developments for higher education will conclude proceedings.

The day will also involve:

A Keynote by Professor David Carless (University of Hong Kong): ‘Integrating the Development of Student and Staff Feedback Literacy’.
Professor Carol Evans (University of Southampton) and Professor Tansy Jessop (Southampton Solent University) will be facilitating workshops focusing on their EAT (Evans’ Assessment Tool) and TESTA (Transforming the Experience of Students through Assessment) Frameworks.
