This dimension describes how instructors assess and evaluate student learning while considering institutional policies and procedures.
Sample indicators are organized into three levels: Involved, Engaged, and Leading. Levels are not dependent on the length of time instructors have been teaching; Lethbridge College instructors begin their teaching careers with varied professional and academic backgrounds. Instead, as instructors move from Involved to Engaged to Leading levels, the complexity of demonstrated skills and tasks increases.
Instructors at the Involved level consider college policies, curriculum alignment frameworks (CAFs), and the need to provide learners with timely and constructive feedback gathered during the process of assessment and evaluation.
Instructors at the Engaged level ensure their assessments and methods of evaluation are aligned to course and program outcomes. Assessments and methods of evaluation are communicated and implemented in a timely, equitable manner; are valid, reliable, and fair; and show ongoing consideration for diverse learner needs.
Instructors at the Leading level integrate a broad range of high-quality assessment techniques and methods of evaluation into their teaching practice and actively share their experience with colleagues. Assessments and methods of evaluation are valid, reliable, fair and show ongoing consideration for diverse learner needs.
