Efficient Strategies in Student Feedback and Assessment

Apr 7, 2026, 10:00 – 11:00 AM
Assessment

Providing high-quality feedback to students—whether formative feedback on in-process work or summative assessment of completed assignments—is both one of the most important aspects of teaching and often one of the most time-intensive. This workshop focuses on making intentional and strategic use of that time by exploring feedback approaches, structures, and tools that can help instructors prioritize what matters most to support student learning.
