SUMMARY:LC1: Assigning and Evaluating Creative Assignments
DESCRIPTION:\nCTLgrads Learning Community – Look I Made You Some Content: Assigning and Evaluating Creative Assignments (Session 1) – for graduate students \nBreaking away from the classic exam or essay can be fun! And it doesn’t necessarily mean more work for the instructor or TAs. This learning community will focus on how to design assessments that invite and value student creativity. We’ll discuss what works\, what doesn’t\, how to connect students with available resources\, and construct rubrics for evaluation. Part 1 of this learning community will focus on structuring non-traditional assignments\, including discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of taking a more creative approach. In part 2\, participants will explore approaches to evaluating non-conventional assignments. As part of this learning community\, participants will have the opportunity to design their own creative assignments\, and collaborate with other attendees to strategize methods of assessing those assignments. \nThis two-part Learning Community is in-person and will be co-facilitated by Miriam Nielsen and Grant Woods\, Senior Lead Teaching Fellows at the Center for Teaching and Learning. Participants should register for and attend both sessions of this LC. Registration for Session 2 on Thursday 4/3\, 1:10–2:25pm\, is available here. Each session of this LC counts as a Pedagogy Workshop for the Teaching Development Program (TDP). See the TDP FAQs for more information about obtaining credit for this and other graduate student-led events through the CTL. \nColumbia University makes every effort to accommodate individuals with disabilities.
