You know that you want your students to develop their problem solving skills, but you might be wondering what tools and strategies are available to assess these skills and provide students with feedback to improve their work. How can you encourage students to be more thoughtful about the process they use to solve problems rather than simply focusing on whether they have the correct solution?

*Facilitated by:*
Amy Godert, Associate Director of the Center for Teaching Excellence, Cornell University; Jared Danielson, Director of Curricular and Student Assessment and Associate Professor of Veterinary Pathology, Iowa State University

*CIRTL Cast Series: January: Assessing What Students Are Learning*
This series will provide new and experienced instructors with a stronger foundation in designing classes around meaningful learning outcomes and authentic strategies for assessing what really matters. Each session will include opportunities for practice with assessment techniques being introduced, via discipline-specific case studies for discussion in smaller breakout rooms. This series is organized by Cornell University through the CIRTL Network.
