This week's collection spans the full breadth of the assessment world, from the growing debate around AI in marking and the return of high-stakes exams to in-person testing centres, to major procurement tenders, market reports, and professional development opportunities. Test security and integrity feature prominently, with stories covering exam cheating gangs, the end of remote LSAT testing, and the limitations of locked-down browsers in the AI era. Alongside these, we explore the distinction between AI literacy and fluency, the science of feedback, and what Europe's EdTech policy roadmap means for institutions seeking to innovate responsibly. As ever, the collection reflects the challenges and opportunities facing assessment professionals across every sector and region. The Test Community Network acts as a curator of content from across the assessment sector. We cannot be held responsible for the accuracy, availability, or content of any third-party articles, reports, events, or resources linked within this collection.
