Many educators aspire to prioritize the teaching of skills such as integrating diverse forms of knowledge, collaborating in teams, critically reflecting, and developing self-regulation as learners. These forward-thinking lecturers are dismantling the silos of scientific disciplines and breaking down the barriers between academia and society, in response to the evolving role of universities in society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to the transformation of teaching and learning, assessment is also undergoing a significant shift. This book advocates for an assessment strategy that emphasizes assessment for and assessment as learning, with a strong emphasis on providing meaningful feedback and utilizing authentic assessment tasks that align with intended learning outcomes and pedagogical beliefs. If you seek innovative approaches to assess skills such as integration, collaboration, reflection, and critical thinking, rather than solely focusing on knowledge acquisition, this handbook offers inspiring examples that can guide you toward new directions in assessment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 350g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 170 x 240 x 12 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9789463729048\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ilja Boor,Debby Gerritsen,MSC Linda de Greef,Jessica Rodermans","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44093491216634,"sku":"9789463729048","price":28.55,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/f86618929c828cb88c8634c85e8569c9.jpg?v=1636430470","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/meaningful-assessment-in-interdisciplinary-education-a-practical-handbook-for-university-teachers","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
