Innovative Practices for Meaningful Engagement and Effective Assessment



Call for Proposals

Faculty and student engagement in higher education is crucial for fostering an environment where learning is dynamic, collaborative, and meaningful. This engagement contributes to academic success, personal growth, and the development of critical skills. Faculty and student engagement enriches the educational experience for everyone involved. It's not just about academic achievement; it’s about creating a vibrant, supportive, and dynamic community where both students and faculty grow, learn, and succeed together. It is only then that the assessments we conduct will have value and meaning providing actionable data that will enrich our respective learning communities. Join us, won't you?
