As educators it is our responsibility to make effective use of digital technology to deliver high quality teaching, engaging learning and effective assessment.

This four-part professional learning programme is designed to enhance educators’ knowledge and skills in order to develop their learning, teaching and assessment with digital technology.

Episode 4 –  Assessment done digitally:

• can meet the needs of more learners
• create easily accessible and portable evidence that can be shared and moderated
• allows the teacher to provide meaningful feedback in the form of voice, video or text (and can even be generated automatically)
• means the teacher can often export this data for more effective tracking

Discussion activity – before attending we want you to reflect on this statement and share your thinking with us:

“Teachers should ‘feed forward’ about learners’ next steps instead of feedback on something they have already done.”
