![This paper describes the successful implementation of an assessment literacy strategy
within a Biomedical Sciences degree. Teaching was aligned with an assessment literacy
framework and aimed to prepare undergraduates for a literature comprehension
assessment. Students were introduced to the assessment purpose and an adapted
Miller’s pyramid model illustrated how the assessment contributed to competency
development during their degree. Students read primary research papers and
answered questions relating to the publications. They were then introduced to the
processes of assessment and collaboratively graded answers of different standards.
Finally, student and faculty grades were compared, differences considered, and key
characteristics of answers discussed. Most students reported that they understood more
about assessment standards than prior to the intervention [139/159 (87.4%)] and felt it had
helped prepare them for their exam [138/159 (86.8%)]. The majority also reported they had
increased confidence in evaluating data [118/159 (74%)], communicating their reasoning
[113/159 (71%)] and considering what a reader needs to know [127/159 (79.9%)].
Students were asked to state the most important thing they had learned from the
assessment literacy teaching. N](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:c5r7lq4fl65ui7tyxdg3rrqc/bafkreicvg6h6knd7nxwuuko6gm3edgvqxum2m34epmnspgy3zjaoptyzjy)

Biomedical Sciences: Undergraduate to Practitioner Competency Pyramid. Using Miller’s pyramid as a framework, the UoE degree finder (2022-2023) and the Subject Benchmark Statement for Biomedical Scientists (2019) were used to identify and map competency development from degree entry to reflective practitioner.
