  • Assess This.

    As the semester wraps up... here's what I have to assess:
    Today or Monday or Tuesday: English 110's P6 and Peer Review. Give Amanda the bonus quizzes to assess. Letter written in class on Monday will be self-assessed.
    Today or Monday or Tuesday: WL240's Individual Projects.
    Tuesday and Wednesday: English 120's assignments from this week.
    Tuesday and Wednesday: WL240's assignments from this week.
    Thursday and Friday: Final assignments in all classes (except for the WL240 Final Collages) = I need to calculate how many things that'll be.
    After Friday: WL240's Final Collage Project (student evals due at midnight Friday of Finals); I may have to use Monday Dec. 20 to wrap up things and chuck final grades into PeopleSoft.

  • I had to click on this for the title alone. I want to be able to have as much fun teaching as you do.

  • @GreekPhysique - Yeah, it could've been full of more spunk for what the title was advertising! :o ) When it comes to assessment, I like to use this very teaching blog to see what went well, etc. As for the grading part, I like to make it easy on me (and the students). That's where a simple rubric comes into play, and I've played with making mine much more objective: Does the paper have a thesis? Yes/No.

    Granted, I overhaul my projects and rubrics all the time to make the assessment easier to understand, etc.
    It's a process, but isn't everything? :D  

  • All you articulate interferes with my brainpower, I consider so
