Have you wondered how you will assess students on the AU UFO? This working session will give undergraduate faculty the opportunity to practice using the rubrics, which were developed over the summer, on real student work. Faculty will dialogue with colleagues on application of the rubrics across disciplines and skill levels, and will ultimately develop a shared understanding of how to use the rubrics in their courses.
