Surprise! Good Things Happen When Students Get Creative


CanInnovate Logo-brought to you by The Online Education Initiative

ARCHIVE:

 

When you design your courses with open-ended assignments, students will surprise themselves, and you, with their creative, original work. In this presentation, I will outline different options for including open-ended assignments in any kind of class, along with strategies for “feedforward” assessments that encourage risk-taking and revision.
