E-scape: e-assessment
Digital technologies allow for assessment work to be written, recorded and assessed using ICT. Regulations and guidance have been produced by QCA on how digital technologies can play a part in assessment. Using digital technologies to help students demonstrate levels of creativity is also a feature of e-assessment.
