In this 20-Minute Mentor, you’ll learn how to shift from traditional grading to learner-centered feedback and assessment strategies that foster growth, engagement, and student success.
Too often, feedback and assessment in higher education become routine tasks—focused on grading, compliance, or checking boxes—rather than opportunities for real student growth. Traditional, one-size-fits-all approaches can leave students disengaged, uncertain about how to improve, and disconnected from the learning process. At the same time, faculty may feel stuck in practices that measure performance but do little to foster deeper learning or meaningful dialogue.
In this 20-Minute Mentor, you’ll discover how to transform assessment into a learner-centered practice that empowers both students and instructors. You’ll learn to design reciprocal feedback loops that spark authentic conversation, craft varied assessments that reflect diverse learning styles, and develop a feedback philosophy that prioritizes growth over grades. By centering student voice and agency, this program equips you with practical strategies to boost engagement, foster belonging, and strengthen your own teaching practice—making assessment a powerful tool for success.
