ItemDeveloping generalisable measures of knowledge and skill outcomes in higher educationCoates, H (Australian Universities Quality Agency, 2007)We know much about higher education, but very little about assessing student knowledge and skill in ways which are generalisable beyond specific subjects or courses. This paper argues for greater progress in this rapidly developing area of higher education. It suggests approaches for enhancing the assessment of student knowledge and skill, and considers how these might underpin a model of assessment standards. Preliminary observations are made in conclusion about what might be required to bring such changes into practice. The analysis is by no means intended to be exhaustive, but rather to provide a discursive snapshot of a few main trends and possible developments.

ItemA critical examination of the effects of learning management systems on university teaching and learningCoates, H ; James, R ; Baldwin, G (Taylor & Francis, 2005)The rapid uptake of campus-wide Learning Management Systems (LMS) is changing the character of the on-campus learning experience. The trend towards LMS as an adjunct to traditional learning modes has been the subject of little research beyond technical analyses of alternative software systems. Drawing on Australian experience, this paper presents a broad, critical examination of the potential impact of these online systems on teaching and learning in universities. It discusses in particular the possible effects of LMS on teaching practices, on student engagement, on the nature of academic work and on the control over academic knowledge.
