Striking the right balance on assessment and well-being, with grad students Sakina Rizvi and Connor Sin-Chan

Getting assessment right—being fair, consistent, equitable, and conscientious of students’ and instructors’ well-being—leads to healthier learning environments in university settings but is a difficult balance to strike. In this episode, we talk to two graduate students who share their experiences with the assessment and well-being connection in their contexts. We also discuss fairness and reliability in grading, student-instructor dialogues around assessment, and the positive impact small incremental changes in assessment practices can have on students’ well-being.  View the transcript.
