An important component of teaching is being able to determine whether students are learning and meeting the objectives and goals for the course.  Grades are a common way that instructors can assess how much students are learning in their classes.  However, assessing student learning is about more than assigning grades; it is a process and is not just a product.  Assessing student skills over time helps instructors adjust, support, and challenge learners throughout the term. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An important component\nof teaching is being able to determine whether students are learning and\nmeeting the objectives and goals for the course.  Grades are a common way\nthat instructors can assess how much students are learning in their classes. \nHowever, assessing student learning is about more than assigning grades; it is\na process and is not just a product.  Assessing student skills over time\nhelps instructors adjust, support, and challenge learners throughout the term. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Classroom Assessment\nTechniques, also known as CATs, are activities that can help instructors\nmonitor and gauge how students are learning in their courses.  CATs can\nfocus on different aspects of the learning process by focusing on students\u2019\nacquisition of course knowledge, how students are perceiving their own\nlearning, and\/or the effectiveness of the instructor\u2019s teaching methods. \nThe workshop training will focus on different ways of using CATs in your course\nand in different classroom sizes and settings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This training-workshop\nwill be given by. Dr. Jenderedjian who is a Lecturer at the Ohio State\nUniversity, teaching courses on introduction to rural sociology, community,\nenvironment, and development, social groups in developing societies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
