Summary

This webinar is aimed at InTeGrate Materials Developers and those implementing materials as part of the InTeGrate project, and offers a refresher on what is involved in piloting your materials in the classroom. Join us to learn about how to set up your course 'dashboard,' what assessments need to be collected and when, where to send your data, and more.

Goals:

At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to...

• Know how to set up their pilot for data collection, including what needs to be done in terms of IRB and materials review, before piloting can take place
• Know what data needs to be collected, how it should be collected, and when
• Understand how to utilize their course status page as a 'dashboard' for their pilot/testing
• Know where to document the piloting experience and how to use that information in your revisions
