in this session, we will consider how to design and grade assessments that foster student learning and engagement while demanding academic excellence.\u00a0 how to balance generous support of students\u2019 learning needs with requirements that impel their further achievement?\u00a0 it is a challenge to create and grade assignments with academic rigor, especially given concerns about a potential relationship between grades earned and students\u2019 satisfaction with a course. yet, faculty who teach most effectively combine high expectations, well-crafted assignments and rigorous grading to motivate their students\u2019 best efforts and enthusiastic engagement.\u00a0 join us to learn how they strive for this balance of support and challenge for students.\u00a0 panelists will share their ideas and strategies individually, and then welcome your questions for group discussion.<\/p>\n
