DESCRIPTION:Assessment is inextricably linked to what is being learnt\, an
 d the ideal is for assessment to support students’ learning. But some as
 sessments are accused of creating ‘negative washback’ and damaging lea
 rning. In this seminar we will look at the claims of the proponents of ‘
 assessment for learning’ and will ask how national\, summative assessmen
 ts can take their place alongside this.
