Kevin Dover: Preparing College Faculty for Equitable Assessment, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book explores faculty professional development on equitable assessment practices in college classrooms. Grounded in longitudinal, autoethnographic case studies from professors implementing un-grading in their own varied classrooms, this book prepares those who lead faculty development to facilitate content, workshops, and conversations related to un-grading. The authors developed a professional development certificate on un-grading as a way to introduce faculty across disciplines to alternative assessment methods through an equity lens. The certificate introduces un-grading incrementally, so faculty can make small, medium, or large changes to their assessments based on their needs. Readers will be introduced to the concept of un-grading, un-grading frameworks, various un-grading methods including mastery-based, labor-based contracts, and laissez faire grading, critiques and challenges of un-grading, plus curriculum and actionable strategies for implementing un-grading professional development for faculty.
