Sylvia conducts research into various areas of education and assessment for different types and level of study, and has a background in psychology.
What is your role in the Digital Assessment team?
So far I’ve conducted research into History research skills – gathering and synthesising research on what these skills are, how to teach and assess them, and on learning progression.
What can people ask you about?
Any of the areas I’ve worked on for Digital Assessment but also research into other areas of teaching, learning and educational assessment, as well as research methods. I’ve been in the Research team for several years and have worked on various topics during this time.
Tell us something about you that we don't need to know, but helps us get to know you
I’m a twin and come from a close and open Italian family, which means we love talking and debating. I think that's why I especially enjoy working on projects with other people.
What are your interests?
I enjoy spending as much time as possible with family and friends.
