Topic: Current state of knowledge on RPL in higher education: selected findings to support discussion in the Canadian context.Date: Thursday, September 25 at 12 noon ETPresenter: Évelyne Mottais, PhD, University of SherbrookeDescription:This webinar will highlight key findings from a literature review on the recognition of prior learning (RPL) in higher education (Bélisle, Supeno, Breton et Mottais, 2024). This report was prepared for the Bureau de coopération interuniversitaire (BCI) in Québec. Specifically, it will present selected research results on the benefits of RPL, both for individuals and for universities.Topic: ‘Sitting beside’ – reflections on assessment for a RPL/PLAR context: What do relationships, AI, assessments, and grading have in common as we rethink assessments of learning?Date:Tuesday, October 7 at 12 noon ETPresenter:Claire Hay, MSc., Learning Specialist in Curriculum and Assessment, University of the Fraser ValleyDescription: The root word of assessment is ‘assidere’ which means to ‘sit beside’; not judge, not evaluate, but to sit with. For me, this root definition has reinforced my thoughts about the role of the educator and the role of assessment in learning in the time of AI. GenAI is changing the way we assess learning and is opening conversations around authentic assessment of learning, alternative grading, and the role of the educator. Using personal experiences and evidence-based approaches, Claire will explore the big topics of assessing and evaluating learning in an AI-world, and the role of relationships in supporting the learning process. This presentation will discuss these broad themes and provide time to connect them to an RPL/PLAR context.
