It’s our pleasure to invite you to the second virtual presentation and discussion on
“Assessing Learning Online: Objective Assessments & Addressing
Cheating” with Dr. Stephanie Moore, Assistant Professor in Organization, Information
and Learning Sciences at the University of New Mexico on Wednesday, August
25 from 7:00-8:30 p.m. (Dhaka time). This program is the second of the three-part
series we’re sponsoring in partnership with University Grants Commission (UGC)
of Bangladesh. Professor, Dr. Muhammed Alamgir, Member, UGC will grace the
inaugural session as the chief guest.
In her first session on assessing learning online, Dr. Moore shared with us a framework
for different types of learning and ways we can assess different types of learning with
general examples of how to do so online. In this follow-on to the first session, Dr. Moore
will expand on the first part of this framework, focusing on objective assessments of
knowledge. She will explore different cognitive measures of learning, how they are
related, how we assess these types of learning, and what questions these measures help us
answer about student learning and our teaching. In this session, she will also discuss
cheating and how to address it, as questions about cheating often relate to the use of
objective assessments. She will cover teaching and assessment conditions that are more
favorable to cheating as well as conditions and instructional decisions that reduce
cheating.
