Gold in them there hills? Extracting and using data from existing sources     

M. Yorke 《Tertiary Education and Management》2006,12(3):201-213

Data residing in institutional and system-level record systems are often under-exploited as a resource for decision-making. Whilst the data might neither have the characteristics, nor meet the quality demanded, of formal research projects, their relative availability offers advantages to the policy-maker and practitioner. This article illustrates with a number of examples the potential of available data for informing policy and practice at different levels within an education system.  相似文献

Formative Assessment in Higher Education:Its Significance for Employability,and Steps Towards Its Enhancement     

Mantz?YorkeEmail author 《Tertiary Education and Management》2005,11(3):219-238

Research shows that formative assessment can exert a powerful effect on student learning, yet the complexity of formative assessment is not well understood and some curricular structures and practices do not fully exploit its potential. This article outlines the background to the political promotion of employability and shows that institutional responses are influenced by multiple considerations. It discusses formative assessment and models it as a complex signalling system before considering the implications, for students’ employability, of accentuating the attention given to formative assessment. The potential for action is discussed with reference to three levels: those of the institution, the department, and the individual academic.  相似文献

Abstract

Data residing in institutional and system‐level record systems are often under‐exploited as a resource for decision‐making. Whilst the data might neither have the characteristics, nor meet the quality demanded, of formal research projects, their relative availability offers advantages to the policy‐maker and practitioner. This article illustrates with a number of examples the potential of available data for informing policy and practice at different levels within an education system.  相似文献
