Over the past twenty years, there has been a growing body of research on the relationship between assessment and learning. The course offers rich insights into various theories of and developments in assessment and raises awareness on how assessment can promote learning in the classroom. The course presents a variety of approaches to assessment while emphasis is placed on developing relevant research questions in order to analyze and discuss academic dilemmas in assessment. The course also provides a route for students to carry out their own research project: an investigation that will eventually contribute to the field of knowledge within the educational and social sciences.
The course is organized by Oslo Metropolitan University (OsloMet) and the University of South-Eastern Norway (USN) and offered in collaboration with Volda University College (HVO) and the national research school NAFOL.
