Want to streamline learning while empowering your students all at once?
Do your students / participants understand WHY they passed or failed an assessment? If not, why not?
Using self-assessment tools is a great way to foster more dialogue and empower students to take charge of their own learning. This interactive workshop will offer educational theory and practical applications of weaving self-assessment into outdoor education.
Participants will receive supplemental reading and examples of self-assessment forms to adapt for their programs.
Seminar Notes
This presentation will encourage attendees to speak up throughout the presentation and be interactive with prompting discussion questions interspersed within lecture segments. Breakout rooms will be used.
