ACTIVITY A: Practice Aligning Assessments to Learning Outcomes

  • Due No Due Date
  • Points None

Purpose

The purpose of this activity is to map out assessments that will need revision for fall term.

Instructions

Plan to spend about 10 minutes on this activity.

If you are attending a workshop scheduled for your college, you will complete these activities in preparation for a synchronous session with the Keep Teaching team.  If you are exploring this workshop on your own, complete the activity and then schedule a time to meet with one of your support resources if you have follow-up questions or need assistance in your planning.

Choose one of your fall term courses to focus on for this activity.

  1. Which assessments do you need to revise for Fall term?  (Remember, even in a blended course you probably want your assessments to be delivered remotely in the case some students cannot come to campus).
  2. Brainstorm options for revised assessments. Select the best option.
  3. Describe the alignment between this revised assessment and your course learning outcomes.
  4. Is the assessment formative or summative?
  5. Are there any challenges to remote delivery that will need to be addressed (e.g. do you need to set up a Canvas Assignment or Quiz to accept student submissions)?
