Keynote address 1: Developing an institutional policy
David Walker
Dr David Walker is Senior Learning Technologist and head of the Assessment Development & Enhancement Team in the Library and Learning Centre, University of Dundee. He has considerable experience in the fields of e-learning and online assessment and has written on the importance of staff education and understanding the student experience to the achievement of success in these respective areas.
In this keynote presentation David will provide a context for the event in commenting on high stakes assessment and emerging good practice over the last few years in the HE sector. He will comment on Dundee's approach to managing e-assessment and how the institutional policy in this area has been developed.
David's presentation is available here for viewing: David Walker's keynote presentation [PDF] and also here: PPT version of presentation file [PPT].

A revised e-assessment policy has just passed through Dundee's Learning and Teaching Committee and will now go to Senate for final approval. David has provided a copy of Dundee's online assessment policy (revised 2009) (also attached to the end of this page) for delegates to review.
David would like to invite delegates to try and establish if their own institution has developed a similar policy (and where this originated from) and to consider whether in fact there is a need for a dedicated policy covering online (e-) assessment, or whether this should simply be addressed by an overarching assessment policy. Please feel free to share copies of your institutional policy via the discussion space below..
