Help Your Students Shine!
Often it is impractical for us to assess performance in the workplace. That might be because the skill we need to assess happens rarely in the real world, and often, we just don’t have access to the workplace.
Simulations are a great way to assess performance! However, they need to transport students into real-life scenarios. They need to be crafted with the right resources, planning and clear instructions to ensure they are a true reflection of workplace environments.
So, how can you immerse your learners in a world where the simulation mirrors a realm that will unleash their practical potential?
Step into the enchantment of innovation with our Focus Week: Assessment Tools & Practices.
Join Coleen Rivas on 25 July, where you will learn the art of designing reliable, authentic, and effective simulated practical assessments.
What Are Focus Weeks?
Focus Weeks are a dedicated week of learning opportunities (one webinar per day) specifically designed to increase the knowledge and skills of VET practitioners in targeted topics.
This July, we are showcasing five content-rich, 90-minute webinars that are focused on a different aspect of Assessment Tools & Practices.
Applying effective vocational assessment tools and practices using modern technology platforms and techniques can be a very exciting yet challenging concept to keep up with.
Learn from one of our most highly regarded assessment experts, Coleen Rivas, as she shares her knowledge and valued experiences.
See the range of topics being presented across the week below. Attend one, some or all! The choice is yours.
