\"\"<\/a>I am delighted to finally have the opportunity to take the moderator’s hotseat for this week’s #ukedchat<\/a> – in which we will be running a special discussion all about assessment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

UKedchat is a Twitter based discussion group that meet every Thursday evening between 8-9pm GMT. It is a fantastic example of narrowing the use of Twitter to allow educators to discuss a specific topic, and I am excited to be moderating this week’s session.<\/p>\n

If you have never taken part in a discussion, no fear! Just take a look at this handy information<\/a> about how to get involved. Everyone is welcome. Explore some of the previous discussion sessions on the summary blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Assessment is such a broad issue that I grappled and struggled to come to terms with as a teacher, in this week’s conversation I hope that you will join me in exploring this rich topic.<\/p>\n

We will be looking at the wider pressures of an ageing assessment agenda; how summative assessment may blinker our understanding of success; why failing is good and also tips and ideas for implementing formative assessment in the classroom.<\/p>\n

So join me @tombarrett on Twitter<\/a> for the #ukedchat Assessment Special on Thursday 20th October 2011,\u00a08-9pm GMT.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
