Addressing Challenges to Equitable Assessment (For Faculty)

Instructors may face a number of challenges when working to design and implement equitable assessments in their courses. It is essential for instructors to be able to both identify and address these challenges as they occur so that all students can have an equitable learning experience. Building upon reflections and discussion from the Anti-Racist Pedagogy in Action: First Steps session, this session will help particpants identify several common challenges to equitable assessment, as well as possible strategies to address these challenges as they arise.

Please note: This session will draw from reflections and activities completed during our live Anti-Racist Pedagogy in Action: First Steps session. We strongly encourage that you complete that session in community with others. If, however, you are unable to attend a live offering, we do offer an asynchronous worksheet that can be completed ahead of this session.

After attending this workshop, participants will be able to: 

• Identify strategies to address challenges as they arise
• Plan for equitable assessment in their own course
