Assessment and Covid-19. Episode 1 The Tipping Seesaw

In the first episode of a new podcast series by the eAA we welcome guests from the e-Assessment Association Community and discuss the impact of COVID-19.

eAA board member, Gareth Hopkins from City & Guilds, talks to Nikhil Sharma of TCS iON, and John Winkley and Gavin Busuttil-Reynaud from AlphaPlus Consultancy about the impact of COVID-19.

With perspectives from the UK to India, guests talk about the differing government approaches to the summer exams for schools along with the unquestionable lasting impact.

Guests discuss the lack of resilience in summative exams, the digital divide, the potential of remote proctoring, and ask the question: Will this be the tipping of the seesaw for school-leaving exams?
