Title: Further Reading
Course: Assessment Using Digital Technology > Section: Assessment in a Digital Environment

In this activity, you will independently explore additional sources and literature related to various aspects of assessment in digital education. The materials include scientific and professional articles, best-practice guidelines, and examples from teaching contexts.

Materials – recommended, but explore beyond these:

Materials may include the following two videos:

Video: Understanding Different Types of Assessments

Video: Assessment in Higher Education

Articles published in relevant academic journals such as:

Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education

Specialized issues of leading journals dedicated to assessment in higher education, such as:

Journal of Computer Assisted Learning: Volume 40, Issue 6

Conferences, such as:

Assessment in Higher Education conference

For the works or sources you find interesting, write a short note (following the instructions) that can serve as a basis for future activities and discussions for you or your colleagues.

Instructions for the note:

- Reference to the work (authors, title, source, year of publication, link)
- Relevance to the topic of assessment in higher education
- Key message to remember
- Possible application in your own context

Recommendations for participants

1. Choose high-quality and up-to-date sources – in addition to the suggested ones, feel free to look for works published in the last 3–5 years, as practice and technologies change rapidly.
2. Write your note briefly and clearly – the goal is not to give a detailed review, but to highlight what is most important and what colleagues can quickly understand and use.
3. Emphasise applicability – when reflecting on possible application, consider how the idea could fit into your course or study programme.
4. Connect with your own experience – this adds value for you and colleagues working in a similar context.
5. Include a link whenever possible – this helps colleagues access the source immediately.

Share your notes with colleagues in the Database activity and read what others have written, as the collected materials will serve as a basis for further discussion and exploration.

Database activity enables participants and instructors to collaboratively create and share a collection of entries (e.g., best-practice examples, articles, projects, reflections). Each entry may include text, images, links, files, or other multimedia content.

Here is how to use the activity:

1. Open the Database activity.
2. Read the description and criteria provided (e.g., title, description, link).
3. Add your entry by clicking the Add Entry button and entering information in the required fields.
4. Click Save and Display.
5. Review and comment on your colleagues’ entries.
