Assessment Of/For/As Learning

Today I've uploaded a video in which I discuss 3 types of assessments that people may be exposed to in a learning environment.  My hope is that it generates interest in the learning process itself and reduces the pressure that learners often put on themselves to achieve perfect marks.  

When learners have only 6 weeks instead of an entire semester (comparing an apprenticeship to a diploma course), the content for each subject quite condensed and can cause undue stress.  By frontloading the learning environment with this video, in addition to the previous one about fostering a learner's mindset, I hope to put the spotlight on the content and activities, rather than the outcomes.  

I hope that you gain some insight if you watch the video and I welcome any questions or comments.
