Thanks to the Initiative Interactive Learning it was possible to finance students as well as to develop the pilot software academe. The idea behind the initiative was to foster self-organized learning, to provide the opportunity of collaboration, peer-review and formative assessment in the basic studies curriculum of Biology at UZH. Between the year 2011 and 2014 we built student expert groups for the modules of the basic studies curriculum in biology. Students of the higher semesters such as the advanced studies curriculum joint these groups as reviewer. In the end we built up to 20 learning communities covering the main topics of the basic studies curriculum. Their task was to create meaningful learning and test flashcards for exam preparation. In a didactic course they learned to design good multiple-choice questions.

Since several institutions within the Swiss University landscape are interested in formative assessment, mobile and peer learning, three institutions of different Swiss Universities joint and launched the AAA-SWITCH-project academe. academe provides a Swiss-wide solution for a learning and test flashcard system. The self-training and -assessment application is optimized for mobile use and allows students to learn and prepare individually or together for their exams. Lecturers can use the system within several didactic scenarios and build question pools more easily. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/563224ace4b00e1bbad574e1/563a3c12e4b00addb239150c/563a3c82e4b01ffec494dc3d/1448197771904/learn_round%402x.png financed by - INNOVEDUM ETHZ 2013 In the INNOVEDUM project, students learned for the MC-exam of the lecture "Anatomy and Physiology I & II" in a self-organized way and used collaboratively the flashcard software academe. The students' activities consisted of meta-learning (generating good questions, reviewing the questions), learning, and assessing what they have learned. Through the reflection on their knowledge and skills, the students use their abilities on a higher cognitive level. The alignment result from the lecturers' insight into the exam preparation of the students. The insight acts as a feedback to the mediated learning content and its learning objectives. Lecturers can contribute exam questions to the question pool at any time and close the feedback loop by allocating prof-profread icons for high-quality items.

Various game settings such as the gamer invitation, game period, time interval and scoring can be adjusted. The game interactions allow students, or even lecturers, to use the knowledge data pool in an individualized and playful manner. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/563224ace4b00e1bbad574e1/563a3c12e4b00addb239150c/563a3c8ee4b01ffec494dcd8/1448197821753/progress_round%402x.png financed by - CRUS 2014 - 2017 USE CASE We have to find an optional server solution and to ensure the service for the data for the long term.

To date, no easily available, satisfactory solution has been introduced to increase efficiency and reduce local costs for assessments. The aims addressed in this project address the main challenges and needs in the assessment field of Swiss HEIs. Our proposed ideas present necessary steps towards sustainable national solutions.
