<br/><br/> Assessment is an important part of any education programme. However, following tradition, many academics offer modules that are lecture-based with a formal unseen examination as the principal assessment. This book explores issues regarding student assessment in university-level physics education. 
<br/><br/> University teachers of physics and related subjects worldwide.
