MCC Faculty Attend Professional Development Session

The Academic Affairs Division hosted a professional development session for MCC faculty on October 5. The session was designed to further work in assessment and learning-centered pedagogy – important components of MCC’s commitment to being a learning-centered community, committed to access, excellence, and relevance.

The session included an assessment workshop lead by Dr. Ashley Finley, Senior Director of Assessment and Research at the Association of American Colleges and Universities and national evaluator for the Bringing Theory to Practice (BTtoP) project.

Finley’s national work, at both the campus and national levels, has focused on developing best practices regarding program implementation, instrumentation, and mixed methods assessment. Specifically, her work combines assisting campuses with the implementation of assessment protocols and the promotion of best practices within programmatic efforts for successful results.
