Generative AI, new EdTech platforms, and hybrid learning are reshaping assessment faster than any other part of teaching. As AI tools become a routine part of students’ learning practices, schools, VET providers, and higher education institutions are rethinking what to assess, how to assess it, and why it matters. This seminar offers a clear, practical overview of the most important trends in digital assessment and what they mean for everyday teaching.
What we will explore:
• Key competencies that matter most to assess today
• Digital formative assessment tools (quizzes, e-portfolios, learning analytics) for timely, data-informed learner support
• Authentic, competence-based tasks (simulations, projects, work-based assignments) relevant for VET and applied studies
• AI in assessment: opportunities for automated feedback, risks to academic integrity, and redesign strategies for the AI era
• AI-resilient assignment design: simple wording, scaffolding, and process techniques that encourage genuine learning
The session includes practical examples from teaching experience, including updated tasks and interactive assessment formats designed to strengthen learner engagement and outcomes.
Speaker: Saidas Rafijevas – an experienced lecturer in digital marketing and management, actively involved in international projects focused on inclusive education and modern digital and hybrid assessment methods across higher education and VET contexts.
