CRADLE: Assessment. Digital. Learning
@cradledeakin.bsky.social
The Centre for Research in Assessment and Digital Learning (CRADLE) undertakes groundbreaking research on assessment and digital learning. This research influences teaching and learning within Deakin University and across the higher education sector.
