| Abstract | The assessment process and its impact on how college teachers teach and work together is explored through the personal recollections and perspectives of a teacher. The discussion touches on how the principles of assessment effect every aspect of teaching: syllabus development, classroom effectiveness, relationships with students and colleagues in the department, and across the institution. Examples are given which help illustrate the assessment process in helping students get answers to their questions of what is expected of them and where the instruction is going. Additional stories relate to how assessments influence how teachers work with one another and how it prompts conversation about student learning that otherwise would not take place at all, or only on the most sporadic basis, or in ways that have little chance of finding their way into institutional decision making. This is viewed as one of the most powerful effects of assessments. The culture of assessment is discussed from the viewpoints that it assures that teaching is taken seriously and rewarded, that it values teaching, and that it provides accountability. Finally, future needs in the area of assessment are discussed. (GLR) |
