A guiding principle throughout the journey of I-LEAD has been to ensure co-creation through engagement and alignment of all stakeholders and will continue moving forward.
Steering group
The I-LEAD Steering Group is a specialized and influential committee established to provide high-level strategic guidance and direction. It includes key King's Business School stakeholders (academics and professional staff), industry and government senior executives and experts, along with students. Professor Sally Everett chairs the monthly meeting which is a forum for decision making and ensuring momentum is maintained for the I-LEAD initiative.
Co-creation workshops
The objective of the workshops is to bring together stakeholders and reflect on one of the themes and discuss their experience and brainstorm potential projects to pilot within I-LEAD. From this, stakeholders are invited to participate in a Working Group to develop the projects.
In May, the first workshop was held on the theme of “Employability” and focused on “Authentic Assessments” which resulted in several potential projects identified during the workshop.
The next workshop will be focused on the theme of “Societal Impact and Inclusivity”.
Working groups
This is an excellent opportunity for stakeholders to get involved with I-LEAD and again, follows the co-creation principle. The working groups are formed following the Thematic Workshops which identify potential projects and bring together students, academics, professional staff as well as employers in industry and government to work on pilot projects.
We are delighted that the inaugural Working Group has now been established from the “Authentic Assessments” workshop and is focused on developing a framework for Tutorial Team-Based Assessments with links to theory and integrating peer feedback, regular mini-assessments and reviews as well as presentation skills. We will provide updates on the progress of this working group in the coming months.
The second Working Group for “Authentic Assessments” will be established in the coming months and we are inviting stakeholders who would be interested in joining. This group will be focused on developing a library of dynamic and evolving resources for business educators.
This will include working with module leaders to collate examples of authentic/real world assessments at King's Business School (assessment for learning), identify student data requirements (qualitative and quantitative) to build data banks and inform research and key areas of scholarship, collate literature and examples of business-focused assessments across the sector to build a community resource as well as developing and testing evaluation metrics and indicators of impact.
Your participation in a Working Group will support I-LEAD to leap forward in its development and impact as well as providing benefits to all contributors. If you would like to learn more, please contact: peggy.jean-louis@kcl.ac.uk
