John Parkinson: Personal Response System (PRS) & Grademark

John Parkinson

As a member of the eLearning Support Team John contributes to the development, maintenance and good health of several key online systems within the university. As a graduate of the arts John is always on the lookout for novel and interesting approaches to the delivery of learning and teaching.

The session I am jointly hosting with my colleague Paul Smith explores the functionality of the Grademark tool found within Turnitin. Following the introduction of the eSubmission/eFeedback initiative across the university I feel this workshop offers colleagues a timely opportunity to get some hands-on experience with a very useful bit of technology. Attendees will get to play with the system and develop a feel for the functionality within in a low-pressure environment.
