| סיכום: | The introduction of information communication technology (ICT) tools for marking and providing feedback is often touted as an innovative solution to managing the provision of quality assessment as participation in higher education increases. The implementation of ICT assessment and feedback solutions are, therefore, attractive as they promise reduced marking time, workload and administration, assist in quality assurance processes such as moderation through providing ready data in electronic form, and deliver a green alternative to paper based assessment. They are particularly attractive in units with large enrolments where adaptive approaches are required to manage student numbers and ensure meaningful feedback is provided. However, staff attitudes, beliefs, and their confidence in adopting eMarking workflows are key issues in the ICT change management process. This is the final report from a project that, through a case study of a large first year Health Sciences unit, trialled professional development aimed at influencing tutor attitudes toward ICT to increase their confidence and capacity to adopt and adapt to ICT initiatives. |
