Assessment

Across the UK, regardless of course, institution type of background, students have resoundingly rated assessment and feedback as the poorest areas of their academic experience in both the undergraduate National Student Survey, NUS’ Student Experience Report and the Higher Education Academy’s Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey.
NUS has pulled together some of the key themes of assessment, case studies and produced Ten Principles of good practice, a briefing and campaign toolkit to help you effectively investigate and campaign around the area of assessment.
