Cases on Authentic Assessment in Higher Education
Author: Marron, Linda
Publisher: IGI Global
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
The rise of ChatGPT has stirred intense conversations in education, raising concerns about the loss of traditional assessment methods. The increasing emphasis on examination-based evaluations has gained attention, leading educators to wrestle with the possible standardization of academic assessments. This one-size-fits-all approach not only jeopardizes the authenticity of the learning experience but also neglects the diverse talents and strengths of students. The pressing challenge is to align the changing technological environment with the need for assessment strategies that are both inclusive and effective. Cases on Authentic Assessment in Higher Education is a publication that acknowledges the challenge posed by technological disruptions and actively seeks to provide a solution. It stands as a resource for educators and administrators navigating the complexities of contemporary assessment. By advocating for a shift towards authentic assessments, the book not only addresses the concerns raised by ChatGPT but also provides a wealth of practical examples across diverse subject areas. These examples serve as a guide for educators, offering inspiration and adaptability to enhance their teaching methods and foster a more inclusive and engaging learning environment.

The Role of the History of Mathematics in the Teaching/Learning Process
Author: Sixto Romero Sanchez
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031299000
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 464
Book Description
This volume presents multiple perspectives on the uses of the history of mathematics for teaching and learning, including the value of historical topics in challenging mathematics tasks, for provoking teachers’ reflection on the nature of mathematics, curriculum development questions that mirror earlier pedagogical choices in the history of mathematics education, and the history of technological innovations in the teaching and learning of mathematics. An ethnomathematical perspective on the history of mathematics challenges readers to appreciate the role of mathematics in perpetuating consequences of colonialism. Histories of the textbook and its uses offer interesting insights into how technology has changed the fundamental role of curriculum materials and classroom pedagogies. History is explored as a source for the training of teachers, for good puzzles and problems, and for a broad understanding of mathematics education policy. Third in a series of sourcebooks from the International Commission for the Study and Improvement of Mathematics Teaching, this collection of cutting-edge research, stories from the field, and policy implications is a contemporary and global perspective on current possibilities for the history of mathematics for mathematics education. This latest volume integrates discussions regarding history of mathematics, history of mathematics education and history of technology for education that have taken place at the Commission's recent annual conferences.

Assessment Strategies for Online Learning
Author: Dianne Conrad
Publisher: Athabasca University Press
ISBN: 1771992328
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
Assessment has provided educational institutions with information about student learning outcomes and the quality of education for many decades. But has it informed practice and been fully incorporated into the learning cycle? Conrad and Openo argue that the potential inherent in many of the new learning environments being explored by educators and students has not been fully realized. In this investigation of a variety of assessment methods and learning approaches, the authors aim to discover the tools that engage learners and authentically evaluate education. They insist that moving to new learning environments, specifically those online and at a distance, afford opportunities for educators to adopt only the best practices of traditional face-to-face assessment while exploring evaluation tools made available by a digital learning environment in the hopes of arriving at methods that capture the widest set of learner skills and attributes.

The opening keynote presentation is given by Professor Thenjiwe Meyiwa, Vice Principal for the Research, Postgraduate Studies, Innovation and Commercialisation at University of South Africa who will speak on, “The Role of African Feminisms in Shaping a Sustainable Future of Being and Learning”. An afternoon keynote on Thursday will be made by Dr Zolile Martin Mguda, University of South Africa on the topic of “ChatGPT: The first year”. The second day of the conference will open with an address by Dr Isabel Tarling, MD, Limina, South Africa with the title “Developing Digital Standards for Learning and Teaching in South Africa’s Schools”. With an initial submission of 100 abstracts, after the double blind, peer review process there are 45 Academic research papers, 3 PhD research papers and 1 Masters Research paper published in these Conference Proceedings. These papers represent research from Belgium, Canada, Chile, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Hong Kong, Ireland, Japan, Malaysia, Mozambique, Norway, Oman, Perú, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Singapore, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
