Learning Through Assessment
In the Assessment and Feedback Resource Hub you will find guides, case studies, and tools to support your assessment and feedback practices. The Learning Through Assessment Framework sets out the University of Glasgow's approach to Assessment and Feedback. Read more about the LTA Framework below before returning to the resources in each of the four pillars.
Learning Through Assessment
Learning Through Assessment is a sector-leading, evidence-based approach to assessment and feedback, which enables our students to become self-regulated, life-long learners. It is based on four pillars of assessment and feedback: Meaningful, Iterative, Programmatic, and Inclusive.
Meaningful
Meaningful assessment (also known as authentic assessment) helps students develop subject-area knowledge, as well as knowledge and skills that may be useful for them in other contexts.
Iterative
Iterative assessment suggests that students are reviewing their performances and building incrementally on their assessment and feedback experiences across courses and years of study.
Programmatic
Programmatic assessment implies that assessment is organised across a programme, rather than for individual courses, giving students a connected learning experience, and helping staff reflect on what they assess.
