Project Duration

Jun 2010 - Jan 2012

Project Description

The project expanded the website, which was developed in a previous project, Student Self Accessing Practice Test Sites, by adding new assessment and learning tasks, developing assessment rubrics and providing supplementary learning materials.

Project Outcome

33 courses with around 4000 students in the School of Humanities and Social Science between Spring 2009 to Fall 2011 benefited from the Student Self Accessing Practice Test Sites (SSAPTS). Students reckoned the learning tools offered by the SSAPTS project useful to them especially in terms of helping them to track their learning progress, understanding the subject matter as well as familiarizing with the exam format. Positive feedback was received from the instructors participating in the project as well. Furthermore, two school-based TA training workshops were organized in Spring and Summer 2011 with a purpose to improve the quality of student learning.
