Integrated Assessment:
Formative Assessment: Learning and assessment are integrated. The study guides, as a rule, contain self-assessment tasks with feedback. The scheme of work includes assignments which may be self-assessed base on the learning material and students are given feedback. The process is continuous of focuses on smaller sections of the work and limited numbers of outcomes.
Summative Assessment: Examinations, or equivalent assessment such as a portfolio of evidence assess a representative selection of the outcomes practised and assessed in the formative stage. Summative Assessment also tests the student's ability to manage and integrate a large body of knowledge to achieve the stated outcomes of a module. |
