DISA – Digital Self-Assessment for Large University Courses
Page: 1637
We introduce a model for replacing the course exam with self-assessment on a large undergraduate mathematics course. In our course model, the self-assessment method is seen as a part of new learning environment that enhances the students' reflection skills and encourages them to foster their ownership of their own learning. Self-assessment skills are trained throughout the course and the students receive feedback from multiple sources, including teachers and peers. The DISA model is an important initiative to develop large course pedagogy in the university mathematics setting.
