Indigenous Assessment Pedagogy - An Indigenization Workshop Series Online
This session will support participants with examining Indigenous assessment and strategies for inclusion in courses. An examination of the cultural implications of classroom assessment and grading practices helps participants recognize the ways that culturally appropriate assessment can support the learning success of Indigenous learners. The focus on assessment for learning recognizes that effective assessment is not removed from the learning experience but is embedded in authentic learning activities based on higher-order thinking skills, such as problem solving and analysis.
