Samenvatting

In two projects I have experimented with student designing their own assessment. One project was for a minor with only a few participants, so suitable for the experiment. The other was a regular course with approximately 50 students where the assessment form was partially free. I have done this project for over more than 10 years now. In this project every project group of students gets the assignment to let the other students experience what they have learned in their project. We would like to discuss how we can give students the opportunity to design their own assessment and still measure intended learning outcomes. And how can we learn from different cultures (between programs, faculties, universities and countries) in facilitating students to design their own assessment. Besides, we think by giving students more control over their own learning we will challenge students to focus on thriving and not just surviving.
