Where:
North Campus, Room D236 Tired of marking that assignment you have given for two semesters in a row?
Discouraged by the lack of time and energy your students are putting into their work?
Sometimes all you need is a new approach and some colleagues to help inspire you.
In this workshop we rethink our approach to evaluation in hands on fashion. Starting from the premise that testing does not necessarily mean tests and that assignments should extend knowledge not just involve its repetition, we consider how to design and develop engaging evaluation procedures. Bring an assignment you would like to revamp to this session, as we workshop new ways of approaching evaluation.

Event: Anita Sarkeesian, Pop Culture Media Critic, Founder,
FeministFrequency.com
Location: North Campus - 7th Semester (KB111)
Time: 12 - 1:30 p.m.
"I'll Make a Man Out of You"
Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Battlest ar Gallactica, and Star Trek Voyager are just a few of the science fiction and fantasy television shows in the past couple of decades that have showcased strong female leads who have advanced and challenged traditional representations of women in the media. However, some educators, feminists, and media critics have pointed out that many Strong Female Charac ters are just replicating masculine archetypes but in a sexualized, female body. In this lecture, Anita Sarkeesian will deconstruct the Strong Female Character and argue for a new character archetype that suppor ts feminist ideals and breaks out of traditional oppressive gender binaries in order to promote, encourage, and envision a more just society.
