Over the educational sector’s 100-year-plus history, standardisation has been a central assumption in test theory and practice. The justification turns on levelling the playing field by presenting all examinees with equivalent experiences.
In this seminar, Randy will present a case for the personalisation of assessments in practice, and the challenges that will need to be addressed if personalised assessment is to avoid perpetuating past inequities.
This online event will be particularly useful for researchers, policymakers and teachers.
