C: Assessing Student Performance (Online)

IN THIS WORKSHOP YOU WILL

• select forms of assessment, evaluation, and feedback for your courses that are coherent with your defined learning aims and outcomes,
• specify adequate methods through which students can demonstrate their learning outcomes,
• outline a catalogue design with performance criteria you want to assess, evaluate and provide feedback on and
• define how to make use of constructive feedback, e.g. in the context of student presentations.

In this Online-Workshop we address how you can plan and carry out assessment, evaluation, and feedback on student performance effectively, coherent with your defined learning outcomes. For this purpose, we talk about leading principles of University Teaching and Learning that help us choose appropriate methods and criteria to assess, evaluate, provide and gain constructive feedback. We proceed working on your specific courses via input by the trainer, as well as reflexion, discussion and exercises.

With 8 AE plus optional 2 AE for self-study, the workshop will provide an insight into key aspects of assessing and evaluating student performance, including examples from practice, while giving you the chance to develop your individual approaches.
