Assessment to help link concepts

Assessment is incredibly important in education, to support feedback and guide subsequent teaching. For students, assessments convey the information and level of understanding that is deemed important, and can have a huge impact on how they approach their work.

In this study, Ye and Lewis investigate the potential of Creative Exercises (CEs), a novel form of assessment, which promotes students’ linking of concepts within chemistry.

David Read summarises and reviews the article and study.
