Senior Qualification Examination (SKE-VU)

SKE tracks provided by the VU Centre for Teaching & Learning adhere to the nationally established SKE qualities, as in effect since May 2020.

Qualities  of the assessment-literate UAS teacher (as of May 2020):

Quality 1: You act within the context of the assessment policy and the assessment organisation
You evaluate the quality of those parts of/processes within the assessment organisation for which you are responsible, and can advise on these. In doing so, you are aware of the different roles, tasks and responsibilities within the assessment organisation. In your role, you contribute actively to practical guidance for colleagues, and to the development, implementation and/or evaluation of assessment policy and/or the (frameworks of the) assessment organisation of the degree programme.

Quality 2: You act within the educational and assessment programme
You actively contribute to developing the assessment programme of the degree programme. You evaluate the quality of the assessment programme in relation to the programme learning outcomes, and advise on the (re)design of the assessment programme. You oversee the whole as well as the coherence and interconnections between assessments within the degree programme in relation to the education programme.

Quality 3: You can adequately apply assessment knowledge and skills
You support and supervise colleagues in the assessment process, and evaluate the quality of your own assessments and those of colleagues. You translate the outcomes of evaluations into specific recommendations. You advise on issues relating to design and evaluation. In doing so, you constantly balance issues based on the function of the assessments and the context in which they are used.

Quality 4: You retain your assessment literacy
As a critical professional, you focus on the continuous development of your own assessment literacy, in line with your role, tasks and responsibilities. You hold and/or initiate a substantive discussion about the importance of assessment literacy as part of teacher competence, and about the quality of assessment within the degree programme.
