Grading & Equity Community of Practice: Establishing more inclusive assessment practices
Faculty already using inclusive teaching strategies will focus specifically on alternative assessment strategies that have been shown in the literature to support diverse learners. Throughout the semester faculty will: 1) read strategies on equitable and inclusive assessment, 2) develop and modify their own assessment strategies in their classes, and 3) evaluate the impact of this change on their students’ sense of belonging and learning. Registered participants will receive a copy of the recently published book: UNgrading: Why rating students undermines learning (and what to do instead), which shared the experience of numerous educators in their experiences shifting away from traditional grading practices.
