Assignment Redesign Department Liaisons

Program Purpose: To increase the use of transparent teaching frameworks, which can equitably promote all college students’ success. Recent research indicates that transparently designed assignments benefit college students’ learning significantly – especially that of underserved students (Winkelmes et. al. Peer Review, Winter/Spring 2016).
