PIVOT Webinar: Reconceptualizing Online Assessments

Instructional technologies provide many opportunities to support assessment and track student performance in Blackboard. While low-impact assessments are easily implemented to check knowledge or skills, authentic assessment requires students to perform real-world tasks and apply those knowledge and skills. Join this webinar to discuss the benefits of low-impact, self and peer, and authentic assessments in your online courses. Share your ideas and strategies for designing, delivering, and evaluating student assessment in a virtual environment.

Stay after for a 30-minute deep dive into available technologies at UMBC to support assessment.

Planning Instructional Variety for Online Teaching (PIVOT) is a new professional development program for faculty who wish to take a more deliberate approach to preparing their courses for remote, synchronous and asynchronous, online instruction. Learn more.
