It shapes what students study\, how they engage with knowledge\, and ultimately who succeeds and who is excluded. Yet despite its central role\, assessment design often remains surprisingly under-theorised\, guided by tradition\, convenience\, or institutional habit rather than by clear conceptual frameworks\, discourse awareness\, or research-informed design principles. As this book argues\, assessment is not merely a tool for measuring learning or finding ways of detecting AI use. It is a pedagogical architecture that structures opportunities to demonstrate knowledge\, participate in disciplinary practices\, and develop academic identity.\nThe open access peer-reviewed Ebook we edited\, designed and authored entitled Inclusive Assessment Design in Higher Education: Feedback\, Partnership\, and AI-Supported Design addresses a significant gap in contemporary educational discourse. While universities increasingly speak about inclusion\, equity\, and innovation\, there remains a lack of coherent guidance on how these aspirations translate into concrete assessment design decisions. Many educators face practical questions for which the literature provides fragmented answers: How can assessment systems become genuinely inclusive without lowering intellectual standards? How can feedback move beyond commentary toward meaningful learning processes? How can assessment design respond constructively to the emergence of generative AI while preserving academic integrity and student agency?\nThis open access book responds to these challenges by bringing together theoretical insight\, pedagogical models\, and evidence-based case studies developed across the INGENIUM European University Alliance. A distinctive strength of this volume lies in its architecture. Each chapter moves systematically from scholarly foundations\, to conceptual frameworks\, to practical design models\, and finally to applied case studies. For university teachers\, programme leaders\, educational developers\, and policy makers\, this book offers more than critique. It provides a language for thinking about assessment as a complex pedagogical system and equips educators with design literacy to rethink entrenched practices. By integrating perspectives from assessment research\, multiliteracies\, feedback literacy\, Universal Design for Learning\, and action research\, the book situates inclusive assessment within a broader transformation of higher education pedagogy with a clear message: inclusive assessment does not emerge accidentally. It must be designed\, researched\, and continuously refined.\nKallia Katsampoxaki-Hodgetts\, UOC; Thomas O’Mahony\, MTU; Cai Weaver\, Xamk; Mercedes Bravo Rebolledo\, URN; Oana Colt\, TUIASI\n\n\nMultimodal Artefacts for Reflective Chemistry Learning (MARCheL)\n\nHow can laboratory assessment move beyond traditional lab reports? MARCheL introduces an innovative approach that combines reflective practice\, co-created assessment rubrics\, peer feedback and student-produced multimodal artefacts to enhance learning in STEM laboratories. Building on the successful “MCRs meet Multimodal Assessment” initiative at the University of Crete\, the project brings together partners from Greece (UoC) and Spain (OVD) to explore how participatory and digital assessment can strengthen student engagement\, scientific communication\, and intercultural collaboration. During this webinar\, the consortium will present the project’s pedagogical framework\, implementation strategy and vision for developing transferable teaching practices across the INGENIUM Alliance.\nAss.

Through arts-based learning and action research\, students\, teachers\, professionals\, and local residents collaborate to explore how theatre\, music\, visual arts\, drama\, and other creative practices can strengthen community\, belonging\, and social wellbeing across generations and national borders. Drawing on experiences from an intensive week-long learning laboratory in northern Spain\, the webinar will share insights into how collaborative artistic engagement can help address involuntary loneliness and foster more inclusive and connected communities.\nThe project is coordinated by Professor José Antonio Labra Pérez (Spain) and Professor María Paula Fernández García (Spain)\, and the webinar will be presented by Kristina Carlén (Sweden).\n\n\n13:00-13:30 Bridging In-School and Out-Of-School Literacy Practices: Α Useful Online Toolkit for the Teacher\n\nBridging In-School and Out-of-School Literacy Practices: A Useful Online Toolkit for Teachers is an educational research project developed through the collaboration between the University of Crete and the University of Oviedo under the Educational Lab Project of the INGENIUM European University. The project is grounded in the well-documented mismatch between students’ in-school and out-of-school literacy practices\, which often limits meaningful learning and perpetuates educational\, and broader social\, inequalities. To address this challenge\, the project has developed a research-based\, user-friendly online toolkit that supports teachers in investigating their students’ literacy practices across different contexts and incorporating these insights into classroom teaching. The toolkit encourages teachers to adopt the role of reflective practitioners and educational researchers\, fostering student-centered\, inclusive\, and socially responsive pedagogies that recognize the diverse experiences\, interests\, and cultural backgrounds students bring to school. Available in Greek\, English\, and Spanish\, the toolkit aims to promote educational innovation\, support teachers’ professional development\, and contribute to both research and educational policymaking by advancing more equitable and meaningful literacy education across diverse educational and cultural contexts.\nVasia Tsami\, UOC URL:https://ingenium-university.eu/event/education-lab-webinar-projects-from-the-third-call-ii/ CATEGORIES:Education Lab,Webinars ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://ingenium-university.eu/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/130225_Ingenium_kuva-Pihla-Liukkonen-Kontrastia-20-scaled.jpg LOCATION:https://xamk-fi.zoom.us/meeting/register/OPSwgGERSIuGlnwDxkV2Cw END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Brussels:20260904T120000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Brussels:20260904T133000 DTSTAMP:20260831T060015 CREATED:20260703T095808Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260715T084806Z UID:10000210-1788523200-1788528600@ingenium-university.eu SUMMARY:Education Lab Webinar: Projects from the third call III DESCRIPTION:Now it’s time to get to know the projects from the third Joint Education Lab Projects call.
