*Need to recruit new assessment members...
Before:
- Assessment data
- Analyzed (before and during meeting)
- Look at GLE and decide what to do with questions that need to be changed
- Summarized for groups (what was learned from analysis)
- 2012 teams reflect on their own data
During:
Tuesday: Assessment group will likely need time alone to:
- Revise GLE as needed (based on pre-meeting analysis)- finish before end of meeting
- Look at any last min assessments
Wednesday morning: New Teams (on the order of 11-13 new teams - 3-5 for Anne, 4 for David M, 4 for David G)
- By this point in the schedule, teams should have draft learning objectives and ideas of how to assess these objectives- this will lead to a productive conversation with the assessment consultants
- How will we introduce new members to assessment consultants?
- Team members could read through the rubric pre-meeting
- Discuss how assessments will be collected and analyzed in pre-meeting webinar
- Time with assessment consultants- small groups (2 hours)
- Get to know
- Learn about the assessment process
- Presentation of the data collection stream (mechanics)- whole group session
For 2012 teams:
- 2012 teams reflect on their own data
- Think about what they know about what worked
- They need to know what action items are necessary to complete modules
- We need a general checklist, then groups would need to plan a more specific list
- case studies
- dealing with pieces of curriculum that don't work
- finishing student materials
- Teams need to produce a plan and have plan accepted before they leave their meeting
- specific team member assignments of who will work on pieces
