First post in a while, but I have some issues that I thought I better get off my chest.
Currently at our University we are going through some major changes with respect to joining two departments together to form an Educational Development Unit. With the joining of the two departments we will increase the skills and experience to enable us to better provide a service.
This will enable us to develop more advanced interactions/simulations.
Here are a few questions, if anyone has any answers then I'd be happy to hear.
The question is what is more beneficial to the lecturer, to assess students in the time old way of question based exam papers or to try and test knowledge by application using simulations etc.?
Should Applied Simulations ie Virtual Reality be used in summative test's on their own/with QBA etc
Should we provide formative tests in VR in order that students are not shocked when they first encounter one.
How do disabilities affect simulations, should they have another form of testing.
Should we tag an assessment on the properties that it assesses? recall, application etc
Will VR increase Academic involvement in the development of their test's?
Due to time contstraints should we only offer VR/Simulations to a select few ?
