Quality and Qualifications Ireland Seminar Series

In this presentation, Zita Lysaght and Michael O'Leary discussed essential concepts underlying efforts to ensure that assessment, teaching and learning are well aligned in our programmes. In doing so, they posed three questions that they hoped would act as catalysts for future conversations and reflections: 

1. What does alignment mean in the context of Assessment, Learning and Teaching?

2. Why is it important? 

3. What challenges does alignment present for colleagues involved in programmatic/modular design and/or review based? 

Aligning Assessment, Learning and Teaching for Quality Assurance in Further and Higher Education Contexts, was the third in the Quality and Qualifications Ireland series of blended learning seminars.
