Formative Assessment and Feedback in Post-Digital Learning Environments: Disciplinary Case Studies in Higher Education

This fundamental text provides cutting-edge theory and practical insights
into how formative assessment and feedback can be used to enhance student
learning development through exploring an exciting range of case studies
from experts in the field.

Underpinned by relevant theory and real-world advice spanning the global
higher education sector, this book examines the importance of technology
and digital education in shaping the use of assessment and feedback in higher
education. Presented through international perspectives in assessment
research and practice across a broad array of subject disciplines, the book
focuses on the inclusion of empirical evidence, as well as the contemporary
issues and challenges currently facing formative assessment. The case studies
bring to life strategies and approaches that utilise a combination of digital
and material tools to promote a range of innovative formative assessment
practices, including facilitating dialogic formative assessment and supporting
peer review and co-production of feedback artefacts. Each case study is
divided into the context behind it, the strategy, practice, impact, and key
learning outcomes, presenting a series of opportunities for practitioners to
consider and embed in their practice.

Aimed at experienced and early career practitioners in higher education, as
well as third space practitioners such as learning and educational developers
and designers, this text is ideal reading for educators who wish to see evolution
in higher education, using the lessons learned from utilising educational
technology to focus on student learning in increasingly digital environments.
