Authentic Assessment for Transformative Community Engaged Teaching & Learning

Community engaged teaching and learning (CETL) offers a wide range of creative and engaging possibilities for assessing and documenting student learning and driving progress toward achieving meaningful community priorities. These possibilities are exciting but can also illuminate complexities among institutional and community goals for learning, engagement processes, and outputs. Join us to learn more about strategies that CSAHS faculty, course instructors, and professional staff are applying and innovating in assessment for CETL and bring your own questions and critical reflections related to your experiences and hopes for assessment in CETL.

Following insights from our presenters, the group will engage in a broader discussion about assessment as a crucial element of transformative community engaged teaching and learning.
