<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Physics LTHE Colleagues, </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On Thursday 18<sup>th</sup> June 3pm we
will be discussing Assessments. Both speakers have agreed to
be recorded. The Zoom Registration link is below – please
register early as it will be first come, first served.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This meeting will focus on assessments, a
topic we encounter daily and one that will need a rethink in
the current environment. Both of our presenters will be
sharing their experience of assessment practices established
before the move to online. Mark Everitt (University of
Loughborough) will be presenting their philosophy on
assessment including a way to support synoptic learning
through narratives and open ended exam questions and Matt
Mears (University of Sheffield) will be discussing his use of
portfolios as a way to assess student learning.</p>
