ENSEMBLE

Dr Isabel Solano Ferandez and Maria del Mar Sanchez Vera from GITE, the Grupo de Investigación de  Tecnología Educativa, at the Universidad de Murcia visited CARET this week. They spent time working with members of the Ensemble team and other CARET projects, discussing current activities and opportunities for future collaboration.

Isabel and Malle presented their work at a weekly seminar of the CARET Evaluation Group. Isabel discussed the role of GITE in general, Malle described her doctoral research on the evaluation of the OeLe e-assessment system, which uses semantic technologies to provide ontology-driven assessment of student writing in exams. This provoked a lively discussion about the potential for e-assessment in the poorly defined, complex and contested knowledge domains being explored by the Ensemble project.
