Summer Book Club

Curious about equity in assessment? Enjoy reading and seminar-style discussion and listening? Join the AALHE, members-only, Summer Book Club. The Book Club meetings (online via Zoom) are facilitated by a discussion leader. All AALHE members are encouraged to participate: diverse perspectives and ideas are welcomed and valued. The Book Club is one way that the AALHE cultivates a community of assessment practitioners.

The Book Club meets online via Zoom, June-August 2023 (dates below). We discuss a different section of the book each meeting. Participants attend some or all of the book club meetings.
