Audio Online Seminar • Wednesday, October 7, 2009 • 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM CDT • $274
You put a lot of hard work into creating student assessments.
And then what?
Are you sharing your results? Celebrating your successes? Using your findings to improve methods, programs and services?
With all the time spent developing and administering assessments, it’s a shame not to reap the benefits on the back end.
If you’d like to learn how to derive the greatest value from your assessments–for your institution, your students and you–don’t miss the new online seminar coming October 7.
In Summarizing and Using Assessment Results, Linda Suskie, VP of the Middle States Commission on Higher Education, will give you a wealth of ideas on how to share your assessment results in meaningful ways, and use them to continuously improve programs and services.
During this idea-filled, 90-minute presentation, you’ll discover how to:
• Identify the true purpose of your assessments.
• Create and share assessment summaries that are useful to you and your colleagues.
• Find the story in your assessment results, and tell that story effectively.
• Focus assessment summaries on decisions that the results can inform.
• Celebrate and publicize good assessment results.
• Analyze the possible causes of disappointing results: goals, programs, pedagogies, or assessments.
• And much more.
In short, you’ll learn how to ensure that the time and effort you put into assessments translate into meaningful opportunities for growth, change and improvement.
