Reimagining Assessment Practicum (RAP)
An Open Educational Resource (OER) to learn more about and reflect on equitable assessment and alternative grading strategies for the classroom.
Maximizing student learning and growth with practical, effective strategies.
This OER presents strategies that enable students to maximize learning and growth, emphasizing approaches and alternative methods that make grading a more meaningful interaction between instructors and students. Video resources include sessions on optimizing Canvas for grading and feedback, a Northwestern student panel on socio-emotional wellness, and a keynote address on authentic evaluation by Robert Talbert, co-author of Grading for Growth (2023).
Created by the Northwestern University Reimagining Assessment Practicum (RAP) Faculty and Staff, this resource has been adapted from the practicum offered at Northwestern University in 2023 and 2024. It includes some of the presentations and resources shared within the live practicum and is intended for educators across disciplines and institutions to use, share, and learn from.
