This session will go over what you can expect from the upcoming hybrid cohort, "Assess with Success: Creating a Meaningful Classroom Assessment System."

How does assessment in the classroom relate to employability for students? Why does what we assess matter? How can we develop assessments that align to our content, instructional emphases, and are efficient and effective? How do I get my students to look at their assessments and care about more than their grade?

If you are interested in any of these topics and learning more about designing good assessments for your classroom or your program, you may be interested in the upcoming DreamSeeDo course: Assess with Success - Creating a Meaningful Classroom Assessment System, set to begin in January 2024.
