Do you use peer and group learning approaches? Are you constantly explaining to students what you expect on an assignment? Then rubrics may be a tool you could use. This one-hour workshop on building and maintaining rubrics will give you the tools to make your grading clearer, more effective and less time-consuming. Bring your lunch and join us for a hands-on learning session Wednesday, May 5, noon-1 p.m., in the Engineering and Computer Science building, Room 023. Bring an assignment that you’ve found hard to grade or for which the requirements are hard to explain. Refreshments will be provided.
This is presented by the Faculty Development Center. Register here. For more information, contact Barry Casey (bcasey@umbc.edu; ext. 5-1829)
