The first assessment myth from @daisychristo - “no other countries have exams like GCSEs” #rED21
Myth 2 from @daisychristo - “GCSEs are designed to fail a third”
Myth 3 from @daisychristo - “we don’t need GCSEs because everyone stays at school until 18”
Myth 4 from @daisychristo - “teacher assessment is fairer than exams”
Myth 5 from @daisychristo - “exams are a snapshot; TA/coursework/portfolios are better”
Myth 6 from @daisychristo - “modules promote long-term learning”
Myth 7 from @daisychristo - “exams don’t help learning (the ur-myth!)”
And that’s all the myths that @daisychristo the #ProExamRomantic has for us today. Fantastic to see her talk again. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️
One last thing from @daisychristo - she’s got some assessment reform ideas here…
