    What is assessed gets attention: what is not assessed does not. When higher education is expected to promote complex achievements in subject disciplines and in terms of 'employability', problems arise: how are such achievements to be assessed? In the first part of the book, it is argued that existing grading practices cannot cope with the expectations laid upon them, while the potential of formative assessment for the support of learning is not fully realised. The authors argue that improving the effectiveness of assessment depends on a well-grounded appreciation of what assessment is, and what may and may not be expected of it. The second part covers summative judgements for high-stakes purposes. Using established measurement theory, a view is developed of the conditions under which affordable, useful, valid and reliable summative judgements can be made. One conclusion is that many complex achievements resist high-stakes assessment, which directs attention to low-stakes, essentially formative, alternatives. Assessment for learning and employability demands more than module-level changes to assessment methods.; The final part discusses how institutions need to respond in policy terms to the challenges that have been posed. The book concludes with a discussion of how institutions can respond in policy terms to the challenges that have been posed. "Assessment, Learning and Employability" has wide and practical relevance - to teachers, module and programme leaders, higher education managers and quality enhancement specialists

    Annotation Amidst the euphoria about the new frontiers of technology sometimes perceived as a panacea for expansion of higher education in developing countries, there is a need to analyze persistent and new grounds of unequal opportunity for access, learning, and the production of knowledge. This volume addresses fundamental questions about the educational process such as: 7 The use of technology in higher education for a holistic educational system for social development7 The actual technological capacity in Africa and possibilities for virtual higher education7 Cultural relevance of the curriculum and pedagogy7 Pedagogy and gender in cyberspace education7 Perils of externally-driven distance education programs in Africa and the quest for ownership towards development7 Challenges and opportunities in the making of knowledge society in an Asian context7 Strategies to promote constructive virtual higher education in Africa and Asia
