ASSIMILATE Project Conference - 12th July 2011

posted 6 May 2011, 06:05 by Janice Priestley   [ updated 21 Jul 2011, 06:55 ]
There will be an ASSIMILATE Project Conference, to disseminate the findings of the project to-date, held on 12th July 2011 at Leeds Metropolitan University's Rose Bowl lecture theatre. 

Professor Sally Brown and Professor Pauline Kneale will give keynote presentations and delegates will participate directly in the ongoing NTFS project via a Q-sort exercise. Q methodology offers a theoretical basis for modelling the diversity of perspectives on Masters level assessment. Q sorting, the data collection technique, and Q factor analysis, a procedure for subsequent analysis of the data collected, will be used to interpret different constructs underpinning thinking in the area. The conference will finish with a plenary.

The conference is free to attend for colleagues in Higher Education and is strictly limited to 60 delegates. 

To register please complete the booking form. Queries should be directed to assimilate@leedsmet.ac.uk.
