Abstract
Assessment Principle -- --
The capstone experience should include assessment that:
1: Enables students to apply their knowledge skills and capabilities in an authentic context ;
2: Tests whether or not students are able to apply knowledge skills and capabilities in
unfamiliar contexts ;
3: Incorporates feedback from a multitude of sources including peers and self‐reflection to
enable students to become self‐reliant and to exercise their own professional judgment ;
4: Recognises the culminating nature of the capstone experience.
