Managing student assessment records

This project took the generic findings on records retention relating to the student assessment process in JISC's revised 'Study of the Records Lifecycle', from the setting of the assignment to the making of progression and award decisions, and tested their applicability within a specific HEI (Northumbria University). The project completed an institutional retention schedule for the records relating to student assessment, covering the records of the process itself and the student assignments, in both hardcopy and electronic formats, based on a pilot study within the School of Informatics.

Funder: The Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) under their Supporting Institutional Records Management Programme - a Theme 1a project - Study of the Records Lifecycle Pilot Case Studies
