Join Pitt-CIRTL’s (The University of Pittsburgh's Center for Research, Teaching, and Learning) virtual summer learning community on creating fair and equitable assessments in the college classroom. Creating assessments that measure your intended student learning goals is critical to the success of students in undergraduate courses. This six-session (5 synchronous and 1 asynchronous*) learning community will engage participants in readings and discussions on:

  • alignment of learning objectives with assessment and class activities
  • basic classroom assessment terminology and best practices
  • advantages and disadvantages of various assessment types (formative, summative, reflective, and diagnostic)
  • inclusive and equitable assessment goals
  • strategies that support academic integrity

This LC will be particularly useful for those who have taught or TA’ed at the college level. Graduate students, postdocs, and faculty are welcome to join and participate, regardless of teaching experience.

*The June 29 session will be asynchronous.
