The future of assessment is likely to involve a combination of technology and personalization. Online learning platforms and virtual reality may become more prevalent, allowing for greater access to education and the ability to learn at one's own pace. Additionally, there is an emphasis on "micro-credentials" or smaller, specialized certifications in place of traditional degrees. Artificial intelligence may also play a role in personalizing education and providing tailored assessment experiences. However, it is important to note that technology should be used to augment and support traditional teaching methods rather than replace them. Join us to explore together how these new realities can be integrated in our classrooms.
