Symposium on Assessment of Learning

Thank you for joining us.

We look forward to seeing you next year.

Join us for the 2021 UC Davis Symposium on Assessment of Learning, hosted by the Academic Assessment Team from the Center for Educational Effectiveness. This year's theme is " Save the best and get rid of the rest: Lessons from assessing learning in turbulent times." You won't want to miss keynotes from national experts on assessing learning in higher education, faculty-led workshops, and student and faculty panels responding to timely assessment questions. Sessions are designed to provide participants with opportunities to learn about concrete, evidence-supported assessment strategies they can adapt to their own contexts.

Please note: With your single registration you will receive access to an event dashboard with Zoom links to all sessions of the conference. Details and access links will be emailed the week of the conference.

New Session Added!

Surveillance, cheating and academic integrity: what can we leave behind?

Phillip Dawson, Professor and the Associate Director of the Centre for Research in Assessment and Digital Learning (CRADLE), Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia
Throughout the pandemic, markets for cheating services for students and anti-cheating technologies for colleges and universities have boomed. As we move into a new academic year, can we leave all of that behind? This presentation provides a research-informed look at what we've learned about addressing cheating and promoting academic integrity from the sudden global shift to online assessment and provides a framework and strategies for integrating what we have learned.

In the remote learning environment, students in a UC Davis are giving undergraduate engineering students in University Writing Program engineering writing class have a new way to engage in global collaborations. Ten small-scope, high-impact projects offered by companies based in Austria, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, and Spain UWP102E the opportunity to put professional writing and communication skills into practice.

This fall, 50 UWP102E students selected from outreach projects such as:

Supporting a drone-based reforestation initiative for environmentally distressed range land.

Investigating options for monitoring occupancy rate of open seating and lounge space onboard high-speed commuter trains.

Determining an algorithm to automate the design process for custom wiper blade systems for windshields specialty applications like Formula 1 race cars.

Developing a secure messenger service/app using open-source software as an alternative to public-domain options, such as iMessage, WhatsApp, and WeChat.

s working with Jennifer Lainez, an aerospace science and engineering major in the College of Engineering, i Reforestamos, a nonprofit consortium in Ciudad de México, México that is interested in using automation, rather than manual work crews, to reseed land damaged by drought, fire, disease, or over-logging.

"Working with a global industry partner not only further propels me towards a direction where I can establish and build connections within my field of interest, but also highlights and emphasizes some of the key aspects of what it means to be a better engineer," said Lainez.

"I am beyond excited to be working alongside industry partners whose values and goals align with mine. Being a Latina woman and working with Reforestamos has definitely created an enriching experience as these are individuals who share the same culture as me," she added.

Melinda Livas, student services librarian and STEM specialist in the UC Davis Library , gave a guest lecture introducing students to specialized databases and search engines including Compendex, IEEE Xplore, and Business Insights: Global. These tools give students full-copy access to materials such as conference proceedings, preprints, and journal articles that aren't readily available on Google and this is a selling point to industry partners. Livas did initial research on each project and is offering follow-on support though individual appointments.

The project was created by Brad Henderson, University Writing Program continuing lecturer and STEM writing specialist, in collaboration with Telanto, an Academic Business Network and a technology platform that fosters collaboration between universities and industry.

"The projects require students to apply a mix of core engineering and professionalism skills-problem solving, system thinking, team work, project management, business savvy, cultural awareness, globality, and of course, advanced elements of oral and written communication," said Henderson.

Based in Spain, the company recruits partners who want to pair with student researchers for a win-win. They provide the challenge projects, and students may come up with actionable solutions.

"Having the opportunity to work with a global industry is very intimidating at first, but it has offered me the ability to create connections that can further enhance my engineering career. It has also planted the seed of encouragement to apply to internships and not be intimidated," said Lainez.

Henderson envisions ongoing collaborations in his engineering and business writing classes. Next quarter, he plans to incorporate Telanto's Sustainability Challenge. Such student-centered, global engagements embody UC Davis's aim to provide a Global Education for All students, offering new opportunities for global learning and breaking away from the expected, especially in the current remote education environment.

"At UC Davis, we know that global learning experiences are critical for preparing students to thrive in this interconnected world, and we know collaborations across our campus offer such invaluable opportunities for our students to engage globally," said Joanna Regulska, vice provost and dean of Global Affairs .

"This course is an excellent example of one of the exciting ways in which global learning can take place. Especially during the current circumstances, these types of campus collaborations and course experiences produce mutually-beneficial global outcomes," said Regulska.
