This session introduces the Transparency in Learning and Teaching (TILT) framework as a transformative tool to redesign assignments that not only clarify learning expectations but also align with General Education Requirements (GER) outcomes. \n\n\n\nThroughout the workshop\, participants will: \n\n\n\nWalk Away with Practical Tools: Receive templates\, examples\, and resources that can be immediately implemented in your courses to drive student success. \n\n\n\nExplore TILT Principles: Gain an understanding of how clear learning goals\, transparent criteria\, and supportive scaffolding can enhance student performance. \n\n\n\nAlign Assessments with GER Outcomes: Learn strategies to map assignment components directly to GER objectives\, ensuring that every assignment promotes measurable learning outcomes. \n\n\n\nRevise Assignments: Bring an assignment with you to collaborate in small groups to re-imagine current assessments using TILT guidelines\, share feedback\, and refine approaches. \n\n\n\nThis interactive workshop offers a blend of brief presentations\, collaborative activities\, and reflective discussions\, empowering you to create assessments that are transparent\, student-centered\, and aligned with your institution’s GER outcomes. Whether you’re looking to revamp a single assignment or overhaul your assessment strategy\, this session provides insights and tools necessary for transparent change in GER courses. \n\n\n\nFacilitators\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Location\n\n\n\nEngelmann Hall (ENG) B732033 E.
