Your response to student work can improve or dampen student performance.  Trish Jenkins, Associate Professor of English and Writing Program Administrator at UAA will discuss techniques for responding to student work.  Drawing on her experience teaching composition and working closely with teaching assistants, Trish will describe best practices and how to design and use generic and specific grading rubrics and criteria. She will answer questions about when to assign and how to respond to low stakes as well as high stakes assignments. How to make decisions about which elements of grammar, mechanics and content should be assessed will also be discussed.
