Join us for our next IDEA session on November 21 at 2 p.m., where we will explore concepts of Equitable Grading & Brightspace D2L concepts. This session features UCATT's own Gretchen Gibbs and InTech's Adam Ragan Amodeo.
Adam will offer a short practical demonstration of navigating Brightspace D2L's grade book when incorporating equitable grading principles. Gretchen will present several strategies for incorporating equitable grading into courses and best practices for making assessment accurate, informative, and equitable. A Q&A session will follow to address any questions you may have. It's sure to be a great session that will help you prepare for Spring 2025 and beyond!
