LOUISA (Learn Optimised for In-course Submission and Assessment)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

At the November 2023 Learn Ultra project board, we discussed the business analysis that was undertaken via the Learn Ultra project, focusing on assessment and feedback practices across the University<\/span>, and the <\/span>workflows which interacted in\/w<\/span>ith <\/span>Lea<\/span>rn<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The business analysis identified that there was an inconsistent approach to assessment and feedback practices within and across Schools, resulting in unnecessary inconsistencies impacting on both staff and student experiences.<\/span> Many of these complexities and inconsistencies are of our own making and arise from the culture and distributed nature of the institution.\u00a0 It will be a challenging process of change to tackle these in ways which benefit but do not disrupt the aims of teaching and assessment. I am confident that the engagement we have done and the experience of our previous project s to optimise the learning environment will stand us in good stead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

LOUISA (Learn Optimised for In-course Submission and Assessment)<\/strong> and is currently being planned as a 3-year project that will adopt a similar working partnership approach to its predecessors (Learn Ultra and Learn Foundations), working closely with Schools to understand their current workflows and practices and looking at where there are opportunities to improve.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
