Spread the Wealth: Strategies and Best Practices for Using Non-Skills Laboratory Instructors for Feedback and Grading on Student Performance
Hosted by the Assessment SIG and Laboratory Instructors SIG
There is only so much time in one day. Assessing individual student performance can be time consuming, especially when ensuring grading consistency and quality feedback. Presenters will discuss strategies and best practices to utilize non-laboratory instructors (i.e., standardized patients, pharmacy residents, students, non-skills laboratory faculty) to assess student performance and enhance accountability and interrater reliability. Benefits to instructors and students will be presented.
Objectives:
- Discuss strategies and best practices to effectively and efficiently use non-laboratory faculty, pharmacy residents, upperclassmen pharmacy students, and standardized patients to assess student performance and enhance accountability and interrater reliability when assessing students.
- Identify benefits to both instructors and students when utilizing other individuals for student feedback and assessment.
- Discuss barriers and solutions with utilizing a variety of non-laboratory faculty to assess student performance
