Assessment design in an online Health Professions Education course: helping students see assessment differently

Amy Seymour-Walsh

Abstract

The online teaching environment allows busy health care professionals (HCPs) to complete further study amidst busy schedules. While this can allow learners the flexibility to negotiate multiple demands, sometimes the busyness of life can lead to assessments being conceived as a hurdle to clear before continuing on. How
students conceptualise an assessment effects their transformation, the workload of assessing academics, and successful course completion. This presentation will outline the assessment redesign in a postgraduate health professions education (HPE) topic to address these issues.
