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

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.

Date and Time:
November 5, 2009 - 3:30pm - 5:00pm


Location:
Burk Hall 333

This Event is Part of the The Informative and Formative Classroom Series
