How do you know if your online students are learning when you can’t see them? The short answer is: meaningful assessment.
While many people link assessments to grades, the real power of assessing our students is the insight we can get from the results. When we examine our students’ performance, we can identify what they’ve mastered and where they may still need help. Section C of the OEI Course Design Rubric provides a framework to help you design an assessment process that supports teaching and learning through thoughtful formative and summative assessments and rich feedback.
