ALEKS is the practical realization of Knowledge Space Theory – the result of ground-breaking research in mathematical cognitive science initiated by Professor Jean-Claude Falmagne at New York University (NYU) and the University of California, Irvine (UCI) and Professor Jean-Paul Doignon at the University of Brussels. The core mathematical theory was created between 1983 and 1992 with the financial support of several National Science Foundation (NSF) grants to Falmagne at NYU and UCI.

The TAO framework provides a general and open architecture for computer-assisted test development and delivery, with the potential to respond to the whole range of evaluation needs. The TAO platform provides to all the actors of the entire computer-based assessment process a comprehensive set of functionalities enabling the creation, the management, and the delivery of electronic assessments. The TAO project is developed by the EMACS research unit of the University of Luxembourg and the CITI department of the Centre de Recherche Public Henri Tudor.https://www.tao.lu/html/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;task=view&amp;amp;id=27&amp;amp;Itemid=50harveymellar2009-07-06T16:41:32+02:00WLEFormativeEAssessment TAO is the french acronym for Testing Assisté par Ordinateur (Computer Based Testing).

Over a period of nine months examples of current practice and innovative ideas on providing formative assessment feedback to students were collected from Scottish higher education institutions. The information gathered provided a collection of case studies, which forms the basis of the project. This project also brings together the research on formative assessment and feedback and provides principles for good practice and workshop materials that will be included in the publication. The publication includes: - - A series of case studies - A theoretical model - Seven principles for good effective practice - Workshop plans for using the materials. http://www.heacademy.ac.uk/resourcesharveymellar2009-07-06T15:56:48+02:00WLEFormativeEAssessment The Student Enhanced Learning through Effective Formative Feedback (SENLEF) project team have produced a publication with resources for practitioners wishi<span class="info">...<div>The Student Enhanced Learning through Effective Formative Feedback (SENLEF) project team have produced a publication with resources for practitioners wishing to improve their feedback practice to students or get some new ideas on how to enhance their current practice.
