Community of Practice: Leveraging Digital Assessment Techniques for Enhanced Learning

In today’s digital era, the incorporation of emerging teaching and assessment technologies brings substantial benefits to both students and instructors. This Community of Practice (CoP) initiative aims to facilitate the sharing of innovative strategies and resources in this realm.

By joining, instructors will have the opportunity to contribute to discussions led by invited speakers sharing their own experiences with implementing digital assessment and teaching technologies, including lessons learned.

This new faculty learning community seeks to examine literature-informed best practices in digital assessment techniques, thereby promoting teaching excellence and student success. We welcome all instructors to encourage cross-institutional collaboration and support for those interested in exploring digital assessments.

On Thursday, January 18, we will cover the following topics, led by the following facilitators:

• OER Assessments; Zoë Soon
• Jupyter and Autograding; Jake Bobowski
