Session 3

The aim of this session was to begin to tackle the nuts and bolts of assessment-in-community project planning. We considered issues surrounding participants, research methods, and possible funding sources for our research. FIG participants brainstormed in writing the program/classroom principles they might draw upon as a foundation for their instructional/assessment practices.

Session 2

Our second FIG session focused on a research article, co-written by the faciltators with Kingsborough colleague Tara Thompson, of a dynamic program assessment conducted at the college with ESL learning community program administrators, teachers, and students. Participants considered how this investigation might inspire their own project ideas for assessment-in-community.

Session 1

At this, our first FIG session, we introduced our rationale for bringing a conversation about student-centered assessment to Kingsborough. In an effort to develop a deeper understanding about why collaborative assessment may be a meaningful project for our classrooms and programs, we began to share our experiences as educators of socially constructed knowledge in action.
