Throughout the workshop, faculty and staff will participate in individual learning activities to explore, practice and apply newly acquired knowledge and skills. Additionally, attendees will be provided with the opportunity demonstrate their progress, share ideas and ask questions about effective ways to using tools for assessing comprehension on the platform.
