Designing digital assessments? We're here to help!

A new Digital Assessment team has been established this year to support staff to design and implement online assessments at UCL.  

Led by Anisa Patel, the team forms part of the Digital Education department within the Information Services Division.  It is made up of five Digital Assessment Advisors, a Learning Technologist and a Training Consultant.

The Digital Assessment Advisors work within their nominated faculties to encourage the adoption of digital assessment at UCL, including the use of our new assessment platform, AssessmentUCL. They work with colleagues to build an understanding of the needs of different departments and programmes, identify solutions, and report any feedback to the Central Assessments Team.  

The team provide training and support to academic and administrative colleagues, facilitate sharing of practice, and champion the capabilities of AssessmentUCL so staff can confidently deliver the 2021-22 Assessment Operating Model.
