SUMMARY:Effective Assessment Strategies for Large Undergraduate Courses
DESCRIPTION:Learn more about scalable\, innovative assessment strategies tailored for large undergraduate courses where instructors face time and workload challenges in this workshop. Participants will explore diverse methods\, including self-grading\, peer assessment\, rubrics for actionable feedback\, and technology-enhanced tools like e-assessments and interactive eBooks. Through case studies\, practical examples\, and collaborative activities\, attendees will develop a mini action plan to implement effective assessments in their own teaching contexts. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be prepared to: \n\nIdentify common challenges in assessing large undergraduate courses\nExplore rubrics in examples to streamline grading and feedback via different assessment methods\nDevelop a mini action plan for implementing scalable assessments in participants’ own contexts\n\nInstructors\nXiaoxia Zhang\, Indiana University \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis one-session workshop meets online in Zoom on Friday\, October 10th at 10-11:30pm Gulf / 2-3:30pm Eastern / 1-2:30pm Central / 11am-12:30pm Pacific/Arizona. \nAudience\nThis workshop is designed for participants who would like to learn more about assessment strategies for large undergraduate courses. \nRegistration and Enrollment\nNo cap\, registration opens on Monday\, September 15th at 10am CT and closes on the day of the workshop. \nREGISTER NOW \nAccessibility\nIf you have access needs\, please let us know what they are.
