The Informative and Formative Classroom: Session III (Rubrics: How to Save Time and Increase Student Achievement)
Lead: Center for Teaching and Faculty Development/Meg Gorzycki
Date and Time: November 5, 2009 - 3:30pm - 5:00pm
Location: Burk Hall 333
Using rubrics can save faculty time and help clarify our expectations for students! Explore the relationship between the rubric and student learning, the limitations of the rubric relative to assessment of formative elements, and alternative assessments that maintain high standards of mastery. Instructors should bring anonymous samples of student work and grading rubrics to help assess the utility of the rubric and the efficacy of the graded work in reaching the assignment’s stated outcomes.
This Event is Part of the The Informative and Formative Classroom Series
About This Series
