Proposal Form New Assessment Methods
Skills such as cooperation, leadership, reflection, etc. are difficult to evaluate based on the standard forms of testing. In order to find out if a student has successfully developed these skills, it may be necessary for you to apply alternate forms of assessment. The IIS (Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies, UvA) supports lecturers who are interested in participating in a pilot aimed at implementing alternative concepts and procedures for assessment, evaluating these new tools and sharing their materials and experiences with others. The IIS has made funding available that you, as a lecturer, can use to innovate and make improvements within the course you teach.
Through this form, you can submit a proposal for a grant (please be aware that it is not possible to save this document intermediately). The next deadline for proposals for the second semester of 2018-2019 is Friday October 12. All applications will be evaluated by a committee, consisting of a Director of Education, a testing expert and the programme manager of the education lab at the IIS. A decision regarding allocation of the funding will be taken before Monday October 29.
