Tuesday, September 22 from 10-11 am – Register here
Two non-classroom departments from a small technical college share their experiences in helping to lead a shift in thinking about assessment for non-classroom units on campus. Both areas, the campus library and campus auxiliary services, have high student impact in their services but are not seen as traditionally academic when it comes to campus assessment efforts. See how these two units re-worked their assessments plans from the mission out to achieve actionable, attainable practices.
October webinars
Engaging Faculty in Assessment through Experiential Learning Workshops
Presented by:
- Nicole Juersivich, Director of Academic Assessment; Associate Professor in Mathematics, Nazareth College
- Jen Leigh, Professor of Management, Nazareth College
Friday, October 9 from 11 am – 12 pm – Register here
We discuss the planning, facilitation, evaluation, and
engage in portions of 2 faculty development workshops: Cookie and Beverage
Pairing and Mixology 101. We developed
these experiential learning workshops after conducting a needs assessment with
the intent of engaging faculty across disciplines focusing on the purpose,
framework, vocabulary, and process of assessment. The goals were to help
faculty view assessment as relatable, meaningful, aligned with teaching, and
FUN!
November webinars
Reconceptualizing Course Feedback
Presented by:
- Laura Harrington, Associate Director, Institutional Effectiveness and Assessment, Syracuse University
- Gerald Edmonds, Senior Assistant Provost, Academic Affairs, Syracuse University
- Patrick Schnobrich, Coordinator, Institutional Effectiveness and Assessment, Syracuse University
Tuesday, November 10 from 11 am – 12 pm – Register here
Our campus is reconceptualizing the course evaluation process. We examined current operations, as well as literature and best practices, to develop a new framework. Faculty, student, and campus partners provided input that was a key factor in making the move from “student ratings of teaching effectiveness” to “course feedback.” With the goal of generating actionable data, students are asked to provide perceptions on their course experience and their own effort and involvement as learners.
