Join us today from 3:30-4:30 p.m. in Sangamon 1102 for a faculty development workshop, Understanding Contract Grading: A Collaborative Approach to Assessment.

In this workshop, we will explore contract grading, a student-centered approach to assessment that emphasizes collaboration, transparency, and equity. We’ll discuss what contract grading is, why we’ve chosen to implement it in our classes, and how it fosters a more inclusive and empowering learning environment. The workshop will offer practical advice on incorporating contract grading into your teaching, along with recommended resources for further exploration.
