Workshop facilitators Mary Allen and Amy Driscoll will lead this retreat-style workshop designed to support WASC campuses as they strive to become more learning-centered.
Blending presentations with interactive exercises and plenty of team time, the workshop will guide participants through a sequence of assessment-related tasks that can be applied to their campus or program needs.
Topics include:
The processes are constructivist and learner-centered; they're equally appropriate for general education, liberal arts majors, and professional programs.
Teams will focus on a project they define to suit their campus needs. After registering, teams will be asked to submit a brief project description. This will help teams to get the most benefit from the retreat and help mentors to facilitate their progress.
Teams will attend a variety of plenary and break-out sessions where they can gather information and share experiences with other campuses. They'll also receive one-on-one mentoring, get peer feedback on their own work, and - best of all - they'll return home with an implementation plan.
This workshop is best suited to institutions or programs in the early stages of implementing assessment.
Registration fees: $475/team member.
