Session Outcomes • Explore the relations between authentic
assessment, accessibility, and alignment in course design.
• Consider how to apply this deepening of
course design to the assessment of learning outcomes at your home campus.

Background • Shannon formulated a course design
model that made accessibility and authentic assessment as key as alignment
• Trevor was considering how to do an advanced workshop for alumni of our Teaching Excellence Academy (TEA), a 4-day course design workshop
• TEA starts with concept maps of content, proceeds to align outcomes, activities, assessments with peer feedback

The AAA pi lot • Full day with lunch (will become 2 days) • 8 participants
• Part 1: Alignment • Refresher, new map, ILO map
• Part 2: Accessibility • Avatar exercise, Universal Design, alignment +
accessibility • Part 3: Authentic Assessment
• Authentic assessment audit, alignment and authenticity
• Part 4: Conclusion and assessing workshop • Produce alignment matrix based on map

Finishing what we started • As a pilot, the pace was good, but people
did need more time to finish a design including an alignment matrix
• Most returned for our usual “TEA Alumni Reunion” day and did the rest of the work then
• Future iterations will either frontload the information & finish the design work on day 2, or spread the 3 parts over 2 days to give protracted work & feedback time.

Authentic Assessment • Alike in some way to tasks a person in
the field actually does (or even identical to them)
• Traditional assessment may be detached from what the discipline actually does in the world, or may not actually be assessing what’s to be learned (the outcomes)

Let’s try two act ivi t ies • Authentic Assessment audit • Avatars and a course outline

I f you are using avatars: • Take 5 minutes to familiarize self with syllabus
provided (or your own syllabus) • Select an avatar. • Try to adopt the perspective of that avatar as you re-
read the syllabus you’re considering • What affordances does the course offer you? • What possible obstacles might the course pose for
you, in light of your avatar’s positionality

Summary of +ve feedback
Good balance between individual and team work, independent work and structured activities, information and iterative design time Pilot Participants

Summary of suggestions
Consider partners instead of groups of 4 (and swap around); more time (2 or 3 days); clarify relationship between all parts; think about avatars a bit more Pilot Participants
