‘I feel that assessment on a computer is better than writing because usually<br />
you forget what you are going to write…before you write it. The brain works<br />
faster than your handwriting.’<br />
Student, University <strong>of</strong> Derby<br />
Many older learners are also finding benefit in e-assessment<br />
due to the respite this provides from traditional written<br />
examinations, the convenience <strong>of</strong> on-demand testing and the<br />
greater likelihood that results will be based on objective and<br />
accurate marking. However, the full value from the learner’s<br />
perspective can only be obtained where access to computers<br />
is widely available and adequately supported <strong>with</strong> guidance.<br />
Learners also need rich and timely feedback on formative<br />
assessments and a personal online space for recording and<br />
evidencing attainment in an e-portfolio.<br />
