New on-demand resource: the undergraduate perspective on ungrading

As you reflect on your assessment practices and kickoff your Spring assessment plan, consider your students’ perspective! To get the conversation started, the undergraduate student consultants that are part of the Students as Pedagogical Partners initiative share their perspectives in a newly launched on-demand resource “Ungrading: Reimagining Assessment of Student Learning.”

 

Our student partners create on-demand resources and are available to consult with you! Please submit your teaching and learning questions to our “Ask a student!” form and CTL undergraduate student consultants will share their thoughts and experiences.

 

The CTL is here to help!
