Kate Aument, an OPWL student and an instructional designer at the University of Illinois, Chicago, completed an evaluation team project with two other team members in the OPWL 530 Evaluation class during the Spring semester of 2015. The team project was a formative evaluation of the Faculty Peer Observation Program implemented at the College of Pharmacy in the University of Illinois, Chicago. Kate was the proposal writer and the team lead.
Based on her evaluation team project, Kate and her client, Assistant Dean, submitted an application to the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) Award for Excellence in Assessment, focusing on the evaluation process used to provide formative improvements to the peer observation program. And, their college is one of the three recipients of the 2016 AACP Award for Excellence in Assessment! Congratulations!
