Keywords:
University appraises, knowledge, skills of its students, consideration, higher education, communicationAbstract
Assessment is the process by which the University appraises the knowledge, understanding and skills of its students. There are a variety of issues that must be taken into consideration when planning an assessment strategy within higher education. It is important to start with the understanding that assessment is a form of communication. This communication can be to a variety of sources, to the students (feedback on their learning), to the lecturer (feedback on their teaching), to the curriculum designer (feedback on the curriculum), to administrators (feedback on the use of resources) and to employers (quality of job applicants).
