Audrey, Start with case studies. They provide scenario learning. I would also look to see what products your book publisher has. They can provide assignments with a rich online environment. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Using Objective and/or Subjective Evaluations

Dr. Christopher, You seem to really be open about assessments that realistically and holistically assess learning. I am still surprised how many people think they only way to assess learning is testing. Personal note: I am not a fan of big stakes testing. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Summative Assessments

Audrey, You do want to make sure it measures what you intend it to measure. If your objectives include linking real-world application you need to make sure the assessment reflects that. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Summative Assessments

Dr. Christopher, Yes!!!! You are right, it is to gauge both teacher and student. Sometimes we are caught up in the student response we don't use the summative assessments to look at the instrument. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson
