Below are some suggestions for information that may be important to emphasize in class as you first introduce the method to your students.

 

• E-CURE results will not determine or influence your grade in the course, so you should not worry about the scores you assign yourself. An accurate appraisal of your knowledge and skills will be far more useful to you than higher scores on the assessments.
• E-CURE assessments of your learning will focus on student outcomes across different categories. Each outcome category is defined by several more specific components that explain and illustrate what the category means. 
• E-CURE asks both the instructor and the student to complete these assessments, then conduct conversations to discuss your assessments and any differences in perceptions of your growth.  The conversations are aimed at helping you to understand your academic strengths and weaknesses and become more aware of what learning strategies you have been pursuing and why, so that you can make adjustments as necessary.
• If you have questions or concerns about a rating, reach out to your instructor to start a conversation.
