Assessment plays a pivotal role in Higher Education and it is generally agreed that diversity in assessment is crucial. In recent years there have been some innovative and diverse assessments in history degrees, although traditional essays and exams tend to be the default. This workshop will explore different approaches to assessment, including insights into innovative and creative assessments within history, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, changes to the subject benchmark statement and demands to demonstrate employability on assessment, and reflections on assessment from colleagues representing EMC institutions.
