The framework pivots around the academic developing an authentic learning scenario that is personalised for every student, followed by a suite of synchronous learning activities. The authentic assessment helps set the scene and motivate the learners, activities bring the students together to work on an aligned sub-task, while personalising the task enables each student to discuss their work without worrying about plagiarism. We demonstrate how we have applied the structure in two modules; first a third-year degree level module in computer graphics rendering and second an information visualisation masters module. In this paper we present the framework and discuss our experience with using it.CCS Concepts: Human-centered computing → visualisation; Computing methodologies → Computer graphics; Applied computing → Distance learningHumancentered computing → visualisationComputing methodologies → Computer graphicsApplied computing → Distance learningPersonalised Authentic assessments with Synchronous Learning Activities: a Framework for Teaching Visualisation and Graphics10.2312/cgvc.2022116927-359 pages
