Optimizing Your Data Collection with Survey Tools
November 5, 2024
Join us for a workshop on optimizing your data collection with survey tools, where we'll explore the effective use of the Survey tool in iLearn, Microsoft Forms, and Qualtrics. This session will provide practical insights on when and how to leverage these tools to gather valuable data, understand your audience, and strengthen your research outcomes.
Rubrics
Lauren Neal & Heather Rippetoe
Jan. 31. 2023
Rubrics are a best practice for communicating criteria and achievement levels of assignments to students in both online and on-ground courses. Well-developed rubrics show alignment between assignment criteria and overall module/unit and course learning objectives. Before the assignment, rubrics help students understand the connections between the “what” and “why” of learning. After the assignment, rubrics also help instructors provide quicker, more consistent feedback to students, often helping answer a common student question: why did I receive the grade I received? In this session, participants will hear from Tennessee Tech faculty who utilize rubrics and see examples of digital rubrics in iLearn.
