Focus Week: Conducting assessment using project oriented tasks

23 March 2018
ONLINE

This webinar is one of five available during Velg Training's dedicated Focus Week - Assessment.  The webinars that form the Focus Week are designed to focus particular attention on how assessment is both developed and administered, ensuring a focal point on the continual improvement of these practices.

About this webinar

Project based assessment tasks can be one of the most efficient and compliant forms of assessment. This session will explore how these assessment tasks can be established to support realistic assessment whilst integrating multiple units into fewer assessment tasks overall. We will unpack the requirements for an assessment project to support the rules of evidence and principles of assessment and address the administrative considerations in conducting project based assessment.

Key topics covered within the webinar

  • Why use project based assessment?
  •  Project assessment in action
  •  Creating projects around the unit selection
  •  Supporting project assessment context
  • Considering the AQF in projects assessment
  • Developing support materials to enable the candidates response
