Abstract
[Extract]
At the heart of the scholarship of teaching and learning is a process of generating, making sense of, and using high-quality evidence to improve the learning that matters most for our students. In this panel we will propose that an often undervalued source of such evidence is the assignments - papers, presentations, exams, and other tasks - that educators design and require of students as part of the “regular” process of teaching and learning. A focus on assignments as a dimension of the scholarship of teaching and learning has several significant benefits.
