Assessment can often stir up negative emotions. But what if we can reframe the way we think about it? Assessment has long been equated with what’s wrong, what needs to be “fixed” or “bettered.” In this episode, Char Lewis-Sutherland, a Senior Advisor in McGill’s Equity Team, will challenge us to think, dialogue, and act creatively on assessment. They offer insights on inclusive and anti-racist assessment practices that promote healthier learning environments by effectively supporting all students. Char also offers tips on how to keep the focus on learning and not on measuring shortcomings in or out of the classroom.
