In this paper we have used a range of literature and CSaLT's eight-year research journey to argue that the authenticity, validity and reliability of high-stakes summative assessment may be enhanced through the use of the comparative judgement method of scoring using digital representation of evidence and online tools to facilitate scoring and feedback.

Simple methods to achieve this aim are suggested, derived from consumer psychology, psychology of judgement and user-centered design.
