Summative and Formative Assessment

October 12, 2020 11 AM – 12 PM

As learning models shift between face to face, hybrid, and remote, how we facilitate and assess learning naturally shift as well. Traditional models of homework, in-person exams, and student presentations necessarily require rethinking and flexibility. How might we approach these changes to assessments in ways that are equitable, feasible, and motivational?

In this workshop, we use the backwards course design process and Transparency in Learning and Teaching (TiLT) framework to think through ways to create summative and formative assessments that are aligned with course objectives, effectively demonstrate student learning, and are feasible in multiple learning contexts.
