CREATING ASSESSMENT PLANS

Thursday, August 14, 1-3, in Room 8211 with SLOAC Practitioners Carlos Colombetti, Philosophy; Jan Fosberg, Physical Education; Regina Pelayo, Cosmetology

Are you wondering how to integrate existing methods used to evaluate student work into your assessment process? Do you want to streamline your assessment process? Then this workshop is for you. Upon completion of this workshop, you will be able to (1) describe some guiding principles of assessment, (2) explain various assessment approaches that are employed by model assessment plans, and (3) create a draft of an assessment plan for one SLO that employs assessment criteria.

Recommended: Bring your copy of The Framework and draft SLOs for at least one course or student services unit. You can download a copy of The Framework as well as blank templates.

ASSESSMENT AS INTERVENTION: CLASSROOM ASSESSMENT TECHNIQUES

Thursday, August 14, 1-3 in Room 8213 with SLOAC Practitioner Karen Wong, English/ Reading Professor

Have you ever reached the end of a unit and realized that you could have better taught one step that would have helped students to better perform on their culminating project or exam? Known as one type of formative assessment, classroom assessment techniques (a.k.a. “CATS”) provide an opportunity for students to perform and receive guidance that will improve or shape a final performance. Learn some quick and easy methods to assess what our students are getting out of class from Angelo and Cross’ Classroom Assessment Techniques, in addition to identifying the appropriate techniques suited for assessing your particular teaching goals.

 

If you would like a workshop on writing SLOs or creating assessment plans, or if you would like some assistance from SLOAC Steering Committee members either individually or during departmental meetings, please contact Karen at wongk@smccd.edu to make arrangements.
