Description
This event runs from 2-3pm. College assessments are often a moment of great stress and inequity, but they are also an opportunity for profound learning, inclusion, and meaningful challenge for students. For those professors who do not have time to recreate an additional PhD in Education, we will use this time to dive into the evidence-based tenets of assessment design. Our goal is to link those tenets to usable steps that you can take in your courses. Because assessment design is such a complex task, we will look for low-hanging fruit wherever possible to allow improvement within the constraints of an already-heavy teaching load. Participants may want to think beforehand about a particular assessment that they habitually use but for which they would like an alternative. RSVP for the workshop with the CLSE here as well as at the event webpage linked above. Following the workshop, email Erica Szeyller.1 to confirm your attendance for the full event time. If you were not able to attend the full event, email Erica Szeyller.1 to discuss the possibility of 5001 course points.
