Student Voice in Assessment and Learning: A Primer

NEean (New England Education Assessment Network) are hosting an information program which will explore the incorporation of student voice in assessments and the implementation of strategies for equitable, accessible, and authentic learning.

The program includes a keynote speech by Dr. Natasha Jankowski, a higher education and assessment expert, who will address the importance and methodology of involving student voice in the assessment process. Following the keynote, attendees will participate in two workshops where they will develop an action plan to include student voice in the assessment cycle, across the institution, and within the classroom. The second workshop will focus on a particular case, the Student Assessment Research (StARs) program at UC Davis, where attendees will reflect on practices and share insights.

The program will conclude with a panel discussion featuring students sharing their views on the utilization of student voice in the assessment process.
