Reflective Writing Assessment and Learning Goals in STEM and Business
Spring 2019
More Details
Interdisciplinary learning requires a strengthening of universal, transferable skills throughout an undergraduate curriculum. Developing these skills requires consistent reflective writing. This roundtable will foster communication between disciplines, providing the following benefits to attendees:
- Identify the value of reflective writing assignments as classroom heuristics and as tangible benchmarks for students;
- Create teaching goals for reflective writing assessment to strengthen reflective writing assignments and better understand how to respond to student writing, and;
- Provide new ways of designing and evaluating reflective writing assignments.
The workshop is geared toward faculty in STEM and Business, but all faculty are invited to attend.
