‘We are the eyes and ears of the community’
Social prescribing, or connecting people to valued community assets, is a key component of the UK’s health system. However, social prescribing research has inconsistent aims and outcomes, and there is limited data on the views of social prescribing professionals (‘link workers’) themselves. As part of a new model of Community-Enhanced Social Prescribing, this paper presents a co-created reflective case study developed by social prescribing link w…

Há um relato oitocentista sobre a rainha francesa Maria Antonieta, no começo de um baile da corte, usando “um vestido azul repleto de safiras e diamantes. Ela era jovem, bela e adorada por todos – ainda assim, já estava próxima do abismo” (MENDEHLSOHN, 2006)2 . Essa passagem foi citada na crítica de Daniel Mendehlsohn sobre o filme Marie Antoinette, de Sofia Coppola, para destacar o que ele acreditava ser o ponto fraco do longa: Coppola, ele diz,…

Malcolm Smith, Hats
The opulent velvet hat on the cover of Malcolm Smith’s book, upon which a bird of paradise is nesting, makes it look just the book for the hat-enthusiast. And it is — but not as you might expect. T

What’s the point of moderation? A discussion of the purposes achieved through contemporary moderation practices
An increasingly regulated higher education sector is renewing its attention to those activities referred to as ‘moderation’ in its efforts to ensure that judgements of student achievement are based on appropriate standards. Moderation practices conducted throughout the assessment process can result in purposes identified as equity, justification, accountability and community building. This paper draws on the limited studies of moderation and wide…
A case study of assessment of graduate learning outcomes at the programme, course and task level
A shift in emphasis from educational inputs to academic outcomes as the basis for judgements of educational quality in many parts of the world has intensified efforts to develop assessment practices that provide convincing evidence that students have achieved or made progress towards the graduate learning outcomes specified for a programme of study. Examples of sound and feasible practice are still relatively rare in this area, so when assessment…
An investigation of the confidence levels of course/subject coordinators in undertaking aspects of their assessment responsibilities
Ongoing and rapid change is having a significant impact on the social and cultural contexts of assessment in higher education. Change and innovation have been driven not only by advances in our knowledge of effective practice but also by government policies, the latter often resulting in uncertainty regarding the freedoms and responsibilities of the academic role and erosion of professional confidence. As confidence is considered central to the a…
Influences on the assessment of graduate attributes in higher education
Graduate attributes have received considerable attention in recent years as universities seek to renew and articulate their purposes. Though many claims are made with respect to the implementation of graduate attributes, there is growing acceptance of the proposition that the strongest evidence of their achievement is their explicit embedding in assessment. While university policies espouse the assessment of graduate attributes, studies have sugg…

Assessment as text production
The plentiful and steadily increasing literature on teaching and learning in higher education has produced a number of helpful frameworks and guidelines that can be applied to the development and communication of assessment practice. The continued prevalence of much imprecise, unclear and otherwise confusing terminology around the discussion of assessment tasks, however, indicates the lack of a framework that facilitates understanding of individu…
Developing generic criteria and standards for assessment in law
This paper reports the outcomes of a School of Law project undertaken in response to issues arising during the implementation of an institutional criterion- referenced assessment policy. The project involved the development of a set of generic assessment criteria and standards, or rubric, which could be customized to the requirements of individual law subjects. Of significance are the key decisions that shaped the generic resource and additional …
Talk about Muslin
Though Jane Austen has few references to dress in her novels, muslin, and talk about muslin, play a significant role in Northanger Abbey. Catherine Morland's first conversation with Henry Tilney, the man she eventually marries, is about her sprigged muslin dress and its properties. Austen's point is that clothing can be as appropriate a topic of conversation between men and women as art and literature. But we are also shown how other characters t…
