Do it with care. Do it together. Make it workable.
Assessment, feedback and AI-era workflows that work in practice
I help universities review assessment and feedback, redesign marking and moderation workflows, improve Moodle/platform processes, and support staff adoption so change lands in practice - not just on paper.
Proof of practical assessment and digital change
Selected organisations and partnership contexts include LSE, Nord Anglia Education, Aula, MIT–Nord Anglia and Juilliard–Nord Anglia.
26 departments in scope at LSE
8,000+ educators reached through professional learning
11,171 users across 68 schools

From assessment workflow redesign and Moodle process support to professional learning at global scale, my work helps institutions turn complex educational change into something usable.
Start with the right kind of support
Assessment & AI Workflow Diagnostic
For universities that need a clear, practical view of what is working, what is not, and where to focus next.
Best when: AI, workload, feedback quality, marking processes or platform use are creating uncertainty.
Typical output: findings summary, workflow map, friction/risk analysis and 90-day priorities.
Assessment Workflow Redesign Sprint
For institutions that need to redesign marking, moderation, feedback, Moodle or platform workflows.
Best when: current processes are inconsistent, workarounds have multiplied, or platform decisions need clearer requirements.
Typical output: redesigned workflows, functional requirements, user stories, pilot plan and decision-support materials.
Fractional Assessment Transformation Partner
For teams that need ongoing senior support across a live programme of assessment, platform, AI or implementation change.
Best when: the work needs continuity, stakeholder alignment, challenge, coordination and practical momentum over time.
Typical output: advisory support, decision papers, implementation planning, adoption support, workshops and programme guidance.
I also take on selected work with education organisations and partners where the challenge connects clearly to assessment, digital change, or professional learning.
At the London School of Economics, I support digital assessment and feedback change with a focus on assessment workflows, Moodle-based processes, platform change and staff adoption.
The work includes assessment workflow redesign, functional and technical requirements, market and options work, business case support, pilot planning, training, adoption support and cross-stakeholder collaboration across academic, professional services and supplier contexts.
Assessment change is rarely just a platform question. If the process is unclear, a new system can simply automate confusion.

Why institutions bring me in
My work sits at the intersection of academic practice, assessment operations, digital platforms and implementation. I help turn complexity into practical action by working across educators, professional services, senior stakeholders and suppliers.
