Topic: Virtual Panel on Alternative Student Assessments
Description: The move to remote learning at CUNY led to questions about proctoring exams remotely. A university-wide task force of faculty and staff was convened to study and propose recommendations on a University-wide remote proctoring solution for exams offered online. While recognizing that some programs and courses that utilize traditional exams may need a solution for online proctoring, the task force recommended that whenever possible, alternative methods of assessment should be the default method at CUNY.
In this webinar, a panel of CUNY faculty experienced in the use of alternative student assessments will:
- share some of the alternative methods of student assessments they’ve used
- offer advice on moving from exams to alternative methods of assessment
- share tips for the implementation and use of alternative methods of assessment
- answer questions from participants
The panel of experts will feature:
- Linda Bradley, Assistant Professor, New York City College of Technology, Department of Nursing
- Romi Kher, Assistant Professor, Baruch College, Department of Management
- Amit Mehrotra, Assistant Professor, New York City College of Technology, Department of Hospitality Management
- Rifat Salam, Associate Professor and Deputy Chair, BMCC, Department of Social Science, Human Services and Criminal Justice
The panel will be held via Zoom at https://cuny.zoom.us/j/81651931529.
*RSVPs are not required. Please note that the maximum number of participants is 1,000; entrance to the webinar will be granted on a first-come-first-serve basis.
