Registration Deadline: Dec 5, 2024 10:30 AM

In this workshop, we'll address different ways to assess student performance and provide feedback.   

In this workshop you will:  

  • learn to create both graded and ungraded assessments using different Brightspace tools (including Assignments and Quizzes)
  • provide feedback to students in different modalities (e.g., text, audio) and with different tools
  • learn to create and link rubrics to your assignments and to other evaluated activities
  • learn to leverage the question library feature in Brightspace to efficiently manage, organize, and reuse quiz questions across multiple assignments
