<p></p><p><b>The Changing Landscape FTLD</b></p>
<p> </p>
<p>This presentation examines the changing landscape of assessment and
presents some possible replacements for unseen, time-constrained, face-to-face
invigilated exams.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This current guidance note builds on our earlier work on ‘<b>Contingency
planning: exploring rapid alternatives to face to face assessment</b>’
and ‘<b>Fifty tips for replacements for time-constrained,
invigilated on-site exams</b>’ (Brown and Sambell, 2020 a and b), both of which
were produced in the earliest stages of the rapid switch. </p><p><br></p><p>The aim is now to
help those who are currently planning for a phased, socially-distanced and
gradual return to campus at a point when the precise picture for the immediate
future is still pretty uncertain and likely to change on a daily basis. This
practitioner-orientated advice, with its <b>comparative table of pros and
cons of alternative forms of assessment</b> below therefore, aims to act
as a catalyst for teaching teams who wish to pause and think about possible
adjustments to traditionally-held face-to-face assessment regimes for the
academic sessions which are due to begin in a matter of weeks.</p><br><p></p>
