Teachers Talking

Join colleagues on Friday, October 27 during a Kendall Center sponsored lunch.  The topic will be: What are alternatives to traditional student learning assessments in the classroom? When should teachers consider using alternatives to traditional student learning assessments?  Whether you have already integrated non-traditional assessments in your class, plan to do so or are just curious, please join this collaborative discussion with faculty from different departments who use non-traditional assessments in their classes. These non-traditional approaches include ungrading methods for exams, a mark system and labor-based grading. The faculty will share their experiences with these methods and plans for future use. An overview of alternative grading can be found here.  Program is from 11:30 a.m. to 12:20 p.m. or 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the St Peter Room with lunch provided. Individuals requiring accommodations should contact Cathy Blaukat (cblaukat@gustavus.edu). We kindly ask that requests for accommodations be made as soon as possible.
