Manos Alisavakis. Starting from the practices and personal views about the planning of an exam, we will try to make: i) a reflection via the personal views of other peers, ii) a presentation of the fundamental and problems of assessment, iii) a conversation about the criticism and the side-effects that have been found from the research. We will try to clear up the misunderstandings about the procedure and the role of student’s assessment. The protection from side - effects will be the webinar’s conclusion.

LEARNING IN TODAY'S WORLD: BLENDING THE BEST OF FORMAL, INFORMAL AND SOCIAL APPROACHES- LESSONS FROM (ELLUMINATE LIVE EVENTS)
Tue 16 Nov 02:00PM New York / Tue 16 Nov 07:00PM GMT / Wed 16 Nov 05:00AM Sydney
Lance Dublin. The buzz about informal, formally-informal and social learning continues to grow in intensity. Organizations know they need to jump onto this bandwagon, but they wonder both are these approaches valid and how can I ensure I’m successful. Formal learning is well established and is well understood. But nformal learning while seemingly obvious appears too broad, formally-informal seems too ill-defined and the definition of social learning is still evolving. Come and join me in this webinar series to learn how to blend these new learning approaches in news ways to extend, enable and enhance learning to meet the needs to today’s world.
