Abstract: Students are often asked to write reflective pieces or journal entries in courses. How can these narratives be used to evaluate learning? In this session, Teaching Philosophy Statements will be provided as an example of students’ written reflections, and will be used to show movement from a teacher-centered to a learner-centered classroom. Participants will discuss the use of written reflections in general, and will co-create a rubric to be used in their classrooms to assess student learning.
