Teaching Commons Workshops: Spring 2013

Last updated: April 9, 2013

Building Your Teaching Portfolio in Digication   

This workshop serves as an introduction to the Teaching & Learning Certificate Program and to the Digication e-Portfolio platform. As such, it is meant to be the first workshop taken by Certificate Program participants; however, all faculty members are welcome to attend and this workshop can be completed later in the sequence if necessary. Faculty will begin creating their teaching portfolios in Digication, which will serve as the certificate program's culminating project and a means of reflecting on the content-based workshops throughout. Presented by Rana Husseini (TLA) and Sarah Brown (FITS).

Reading And Assessing Digital Portfolios: Background And Strategies   

Assessing individual assignments during a course is common protocol in most college classrooms, but what about holistic assessment of students? learning at the end of a course? What happens when we move from analytic assessment of individual pieces of student work to holistic assessment of a body of work presented to us in reflective and digital forms? How do we know what our students have actually learned and what was significant for them in our courses? In this workshop, we will provide an overview of grading and assessment theory and practice and help faculty consider new ways of assessing learning from a holistic perspective with portfolios.. Presented by Katie Wozniak (SNL) and Michael Moore (WRD).
