CTL LIFT – Creating and Aligning Course Assessments

Presented by Stacey Cofield, PhD

Description: Deciding how to assess student progress and understanding of course material should be an early part of course planning, not something thrown together shortly before a test date. Good assessments take time, intention, and planning. Beyond writing quality test questions to considering a wide variety of alternative assessment types, this LIFT workshop will guide you through assessment development and how to align your assessments with your course materials, activities, and outcomes.

Join the CTL LIFT series & Lean Into Future Teaching

Lunch will be provided (if you are unable to attend at the last minute, please contact the CTL: uabctl@uab.edu)

Please note: Offered in partnership with the UAB Graduate School, these workshops are designed exclusively for graduate teaching assistants, or graduate students and postdocs who anticipate a career in positions with teaching responsibilities.

Participants who complete eight workshops in the program will receive a LIFT certificate from the Center for Teaching and Learning to demonstrate their engagement with learning about good teaching practice.
