Inclusive Assessment

12:00–1:15 pm
Zoom meeting

Apr.
27

Educators can use inclusive formative assessment to understand students’ ongoing progress in a course and to refine their approach to teaching based on this understanding. In this workshop, participants will consider different ways of documenting students’ knowledge, skills, and attitudes in order to gauge students’ ongoing learning and barriers to learning. Instructors will also learn how to adjust their teaching to address the wide-range of learners in the classroom. After participating in this workshop, participants will be able to:

  • Distinguish formative and summative assessment
  • Identify strategies for inclusive formative assessment
  • Consider ways to adjust one’s teaching to a range of results

This session is open to all UChicago instructors. It will be led by Cheryl R. Richardson, PhD, Director of Inclusive Teaching Excellence at Adler University. Cheryl is a former member of the University of Chicago's Chicago Center for Teaching and Learning.
