Build capacity to assess and credential valued competencies
On this three-week course, you’ll learn how to transform assessment and recognition of complex competencies, examining how The University of Melbourne’s research-based approach to assessment and credentialling is influencing global policy and practices.
Explore current research and development in contemporary education
Guided by global leaders, you’ll examine contemporary ambitions for learners and how assessment can transform the grammar of schooling, enabling all students to thrive.
Drawing from evidence-based resources, tools, and case studies, you’ll explore the elements required for new assessments and recognition systems to be implemented effectively.
Learn how to align your learning ambitions, learning design, and assessment design to optimise student success
Accessing assessment frameworks for complex competencies in The University of Melbourne’s Ruby platform, you’ll gain experience of transformative assessment in action in your own school or organisation by trialling assessments on Agency in Learning.
With new knowledge, and a roadmap to implementation, you’ll build the capacity to use new metrics to assess and credential students in typically difficult-to-assess areas.
Develop strategies to bring about organisational change using best practice
Reflecting on current practices, you’ll evaluate your school or organisation and build capacity to use assessment and credentialling to measure the competencies learners require to thrive.
Collaborating with fellow learners, and using the tools, techniques, and best practice you’ve been introduced to, you’ll finish this course with an understanding of new assessment and recognition practices and next steps for how to successfully measure and report on a range of complex competencies for learners in your organisation.
This course is designed for current and future leaders in schools and organisations who recognise that today’s learners need to develop a range of complex competencies in order to thrive in the future.
