Description
Summary:Nurturing high-quality students is a top priority for institutions of higher education. The success of such an endeavour largely depends on the consistency between student assessments, programme goals, and the intended learning outcomes. To ensure that these aspects are appropriately aligned, the right knowledge and information must be made accessible to academics who are involved in the assessment of students’ learning. This handbook, aptly named A Quick Guide to Aligning Assessment with Learning Domains aims to provide easy access to fundamentals of outcome-based assessment alongside discipline-specific examples to be adapted in line with a programme’s needs. It is hoped that by understanding the concepts of assessment and learning domains, academics will be better equipped to plan and manage their teaching and learning activities to meet the demands of quality assessment. This handbook is an outcome of a project initiated by the Centre for Applied Learning and Multimedia (CALM) of Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) under the Fellowship of Teaching and Learning (FoTL) initiative.
