Description
The Scholarship of Assessment & Feedback Practice:From getting started, to getting published, to changing policy & practice.
Dr Edd Pitt is the Programme Director for the Post Graduate Certificate in Higher Education and Reader in Higher Education and Academic Practice at the Centre for the Study of Higher Education, University of Kent. Dr Pitt is also a Visiting Associate Professor at Deakin University, Australia within the Centre for Research in Assessment and Digital Learning (CRADLE). His principal research field is assessment and feedback with a focus upon staff and student emotional processing during feedback. In his most recent research, he has been collaborating with academics in the UK, Hong Kong and Australia to further understand how educators and students develop feedback literacy.
In this expert series talk Edd will discuss how Dr. Pitt and several colleagues in the UK, Hong Kong and Australia have investigated the scholarship of assessment & feedback practice. Dr. Pitt will sketch out the various areas of academic practice that relate to assessment & feedback and how one can harness the power of their own and their colleague’s experiences. Specifically, Edd will explore the nexus between practice and scholarship and how this can be utilised to good effect for academic publication. Dr. Pitt will highlight methodological challenges and potential quick wins colleagues can utilise to make the progression from practice to publication. During the session colleagues will be challenged to consider their own sphere of influence and the potential for scholarship activities in their context through a series of workshop activities.
