Center for Innovation in Teaching & Learning

Developing skills and knowledge that can be used to succeed at real-world tasks is a strong source of motivation for many students. Authentic assessments conceptually mimic these tasks and are a more valid means of measuring learning objectives compared to conventional means of assessment. Please join us as we investigate using authentic assessment effectively in our courses.

Teaching Excellence - Topics addressed in this workshop relate to the following elements of the Definition of Teaching Excellence at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign: 

  • Well-designed
  • Well-delivered

This workshop counts towards the requirements of the Graduate Teacher Certificate, or the Certificate in Foundations of Teaching.
