The Office of Assessment is hosting a 90 minute demonstration of the new ETS Criterion Online Writing Evaluation program. Criterion is a web-based, instructor-driven instructional tool that helps students plan, write and revise essays. Instructors can create their own topics for these essays or select from the Criterion topic library. The system provides annotated diagnostic feedback and a holistic score to both student and instructor. Instructors can also provide their own feedback within the system, as well as view summary reports of Criterion feedback. The Office of Assessment is hosting a pilot of Criterion during the Spring 08 semester and invites interested faculty to attend this demonstration. ETS representatives will be available through conference call to respond to questions and provide additional information about Criterion.
Space is limited so please RSVP to Kathy Doherty (4-2557) to confirm attendance or request additional information.
Location: Digital Media Classroom, 4th Floor Cook Library
