This presentation was recorded as a guest appearance for a course taught at the University of Auckland, Faculty of Education and Social Work. The course, EDUC735 ‘Researching Educational Settings’, is taught by Dr Mohamed Alansari. He funded a series of recordings on research methods of which this is one. Permission has been gained from him to link this...

This is a paper presented at the Nordic Testing and Assessment of Writing Symposium, Trondheim in September 2015. In it I argue that using teacher's actual curriculum level judgements makes more sense than adjusting those by the difficulty of the task being rated. This material was later published in a paper as:Parr, J. M., & Brown, G. T. L. (2015)....

This list contains the original C-TCoA items developed for the Teachers’ Conceptions and Practices of Assessment in Chinese Contexts project funded by the Hong Kong Institute of Education and conducted in conjunction with the South China Normal University. The grant holder was Prof Kerry Kennedy, HKIEd. The HKIEd team consisted of Drs. Gavin T L Brown,...

This survey aims to question school teachers in Chinese contexts about assessment. The questionnaire is developed by a team of researchers of Department of Curriculum and Instruction in the Hong Kong Institute of Education. The team included Dr Gavin Brown, Dr Sammy KF Hui, and Dr Flora MF Yu. The project was funded by the HKIEd.

These items were assembled into a questionnaire which was developed by Gavin T L Brown and Zhenlin Wang at the Hong Kong Institute of Education from 2010-2011. The items were developed from a focus group study (Brown & Wang, 2013; Wang & Brown, 2014), previous SCoA studies (Brown, 2011), and previous work on Chinese teachers’ conceptions of assessment...

The 2016 Annual Report for the University of Auckland's Centre for eResearch.Message from the Director, Professor Mark Gahegan:This has been a rather busy year. The Centre for eResearch has grown during 2016 to support four core services across the University, funded via the University Strategic Projects Office (USPO). These services are: 1. Research data...

In this report, you will find evidence of the impact of the Centre for eResearch on scholarly activity across the University. It describes how our core services, consultancy and skills development initiatives have helped to increase both the effectiveness and the efficiency of our researchers, and perhaps also in a small way, our research culture. The...

Another year, another 25 million core hours. This year has seen some intense computational activity within the Centre for eResearch, with near 100 researchers now having passed the mark of consuming over 100,000 core hours each. Our High Performance Computing (HPC) service is provided via a partnership with the New Zealand eScience Infrastructure (NeSI:...

2014 has been an extremely busy year for the Centre for eResearch. In partnership with NeSI, we have added some more hardware into our High Performance Computing facility (the Pan cluster), and a lot more researchers, projects and applications into our portfolio. We passed the landmark of 50 million CPU hours delivered and used by researchers since our...

Our Vision The computational demands of today’s research questions often require specialised computing and storage infrastructure, along with advanced software tools and services. The Centre for eResearch pioneers the development of such infrastructure and services on behalf of the University’s research communities. We work hand-in-hand with researchers...

This presentation is a work-in-progress and delivered at the LIANZA RLL-2 Symposium, 25 May 2018. The research is an investigation into the researcher perspectives of a library research support initiative towards the reporting for the 2018 PBRF Quality Evaluation.The initiative was a new role created to assist Creative Arts and Industries researchers in...
