Equity-Minded Assessment

Description: The emphasis here is shifting (at least in part) from “traditional” closed-book and timed exams to more authentic assessments where students can demonstrate how they are applying what they learn; we include strategies to save time in grading such assessments. Join us to learn about an array of assessment options, hear about what’s worked well for colleagues, and get time to adapt and troubleshoot your own assessment plans.
