Overview of Assessment Techniques

simple, non-graded, anonymous feedback
• Performance Assessment
• Beyond the Classroom

Tips for Using CATs (Angelo & Cross)
• Use only techniques that appeal to your
intuition and professional judgment
• Don’t make it a chore – start small
• Try the CAT on yourself before you use it
• Give students enough time
• “Close the loop”

Closing the Loop - One Shot Sessions?
• Use what you have learned to improve
other sections of the class
• Sometimes you can offer feedback within
the same session – for example,
problem/solution
• Other ideas?

Some things we learned from the one-minute paper
• “the library is more advanced than Google”
• “I have seen the error of my ways”• I had no idea the library had all this• I will use databases instead of Google• I like that I can get help 24/7• This will make me a better writer• “obvious she cares about the students”
