Online workshopTurnitin promotes academic integrity and writing skills by helping students paraphrase and cite accurately and check their grammar. This tool also enhances academic skills of the students by providing feedback on the content authorship.
See upcoming sessionsFacilitated by Claire Hay, Learning Specialist, and Lorna Andrews, Indigenization Specialist, from the Teaching and Learning Centre, the Community of Practice for Assessment and Holistic Assessment will provide a space for dialogue on all things assessment from both a western and Indigenized perspective. Each monthly session will be structured in 2 parts: from 8:30-9:30 the conversation will focus on general topics related to assessment and evaluation of student learning; from 9:30-10:30 we will engage in conversations around ways to Indigenize assessment and honour holistic learning. Come for one or both parts of the conversation.
