Assessment Panel: Breakout Session - What to Expect
If our assessment panel asks us to examine how we can better align our pedagogy, curriculum, and assessment practices to accommodate student needs in our ever-evolving moment, what new ideas will we take back to our classrooms? What methods do we currently use that need reinvigorated? How can we inspire a love of reading and writing in our students while still assessing their writing? You are invited to bring 4 or 5 copies of your favorite rubric, along with your questions, to our final workshop of the day. In turn, this session promises to help you think through the process of transforming your rubric with our assessment panel’s guidance in mind.
