Description:
Join Dr. Juuso Nieminen in a dialogue about inclusive assessment practices.
Dr. Nieminen’s work examines the prevailing notion that assessment accommodations can unfairly advantage some students, potentially leading to academic dishonesty. Through a detailed policy analysis (Nieminen, J. & Eaton, S., 2023), primarily within the Canadian educational landscape, Dr. Nieminen will shed light on how current practices and policies might not fully support the inclusion they aim to provide.
Dr. Nieminen’s upcoming visit to Queen's University presents a timely opportunity for faculty to engage in dialogue on how to better design and implement assessment accommodations, aligning with the goals of equity and integrity in higher education.
