Professor听Boud has published extensively on teaching, learning and assessment in higher and professional education and conducted professional development workshops for academics worldwide.鈥疕is current work focuses on the areas of assessment for learning in higher education, academic formation and workplace learning. He鈥痠s one of the most highly cited scholars internationally in the field of higher education (h-index of 96), and has been a pioneer in developing learning-centred approaches to assessment across the disciplines and in changing conceptions of feedback.听

David will join us online for his keynote, which听will present a radical rethinking of what feedback is, the roles of students in feedback processes and how courses can be designed to effectively use feedback. The session will start with a dialogue between David and 果冻影院鈥檚 Mary Richardson (Professor of Educational Assessment, IOE) about these new ideas around student feedback, before opening up to wider debate and contributions from conference participants.听
