Anne Quinney, CEL Theme Leader for Assessment & Feedback recently attended the Researching Assessment Practices (RAP) Conference at Southampton University.

The conference was organised by Professor Carol Evans (a National Teaching Fellow) who has developed a set of free resources to support assessment – the EAT Assessment Framework Resources.

What is EAT?

• EAT is a research-informed assessment framework resource for all staff and students in higher education
• EAT synthesises high quality research and practice evidence over the last 20 years on Assessment Literacy, Feedback and Design
• EAT can be used at individual, team, faculty and university levels to develop and evaluate integrated assessment practices.
• EAT emphasises a self-regulatory approach to assessment and promotes student engagement with assessment

There are lecturer and student resources looking at 12 areas of assessment.

Access the resources here     https://eatframework.org.uk

There is also an EAT App https://app.eatframework.org.uk

There is also a journal paper, Making Sense of Assessment Feedback, that can be accessed through http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.3102/0034654312474350

Do let Anne Quinney (aquinney@bournemouth.ac.uk) know if you use these resources. It would be helpful to have a short case study for the CEL Assessment & Feedback Toolkit.
