About the Session:
Heads nodding in agreement don’t always signal good student learning! This session is designed to introduce faculty members to assessment as a tool both to engage students in a productive learning environment and as a feedback mechanism for the instructor. We will examine general classroom assessment and the rationale for such activities, and participants will be equipped with a toolkit of relatively simple, quick methods to use in class. The session will also provide guidelines on writing performance indicators and rubrics to develop consistent, informative methods of assessing student performance.
