On-line assessment - positive or negative?

Have been thinking a bit ahead of myself - have to re-write an anatomy and physiology assessment for our Level 3 anatomy and physiology module - and I am wondering whether I can incoporate this into my final project for this course? I discovered this website that raises some interesting points about on-line assessment and flexibility of courses. See what you think!

Links to other places

I have managed to add links to my blog as a seperate area - they are all under the Beauty Therapy learning tools heading on the right.
I discovered the website while doing some of my own research - mainly because this course is getting me to think outside the square, or come down from the top of the mountain as suggested by Dave Hill in response to the open thinking article by Alec Couros.
I like the way Alec relates education and learning to a mountain scape, and I can see that my own teaching method may need to involve more of me coming down the mountain rather than standing on the top looking down!
Thought this little song might make you smile :)
