Checking-off Lists and Wrapping Up Exams
About the event
College of Veterinary Medicine Teaching Academy
Summer Tool Kit Series format
- Mini workshops are open to faculty, residents, and graduate students from the College of Veterinary Medicine and across the WSU.
- Our model: these workshops are intended to be active learning sessions. Each topic/idea will be introduced, and then the participants will engage, interact, and sometimes begin to create a product.
- Practically, we hope that participants will come away from each session with 1 or 2 take-home lessons they might apply to their own teaching.

DESCRIPTION: In this Toolkit series, we will be focusing on how to utilize checklists and exam wrappers to help students prepare for assessments in the classroom. These techniques can help students understand expectations prior to an exam, in addition to reflecting on their strengths and weaknesses following the exam. Both strategies encourage a growth mindset, which is vital to learning.
The WSU College of Veterinary Medicine Teaching Academy is an inclusive community of educators enhancing their teaching, career development and scholarship. The academy fosters innovative curriculum, teaching, and learning.
Our weekly events are open to all college and WSU faculty, staff, graduate, and professional students.
We also offer educational training and academic career preparation opportunities to graduate students, veterinary residents, and new faculty members across the entire college through workshops, seminars, discussions, and summer programs.
