Sažetak
Properly designed measurement instruments, rubrics can go a long way in facilitating assurance of learning and continuous improvement of the curriculum. This presentation will focus on processes that faculty may use to strengthen the quality and effectiveness of rubrics. We will present the different types of rubrics used at undergraduate and graduate level, and discuss examples of effective applications of rubrics in assessment of learning process. This presentation will provide participants with an overview of the benefits of course embedded assessments as tools for promoting curriculum development collaboration across departments. The presenters will share examples and provide tips and tools for implementation of assessment approaches and closing the loop. Developing and sustaining a culture that supports assurance of learning requires considerable time, resources and effort. Involving all faculty in AOL process and overcoming resistance to assessment can be very challenging. Delivering meaningful measurement and in all, assessment results requires creating and maintaining a culture that value the assessment process. This presentation will describe how faculty training and support in the development and use of new assessment methods can help in better understanding and accepting assurance of learning culture.
