Nina B. Namaste, Assistant Professor of Spanish in the Department of Foreign Languages, was recently accepted to participate in the 2011-12 cohort of the Teagle Assessment Scholar Development Program.
Working with 11 other colleagues from around the country, Namaste will learn how to better use assessment to improve student learning via a series of workshops, site visits and projects. Her three-year project will focus on fostering students’ critical reading skills, no matter the course level or discipline. After her project is completed at Elon she will continue on with the program for another two years as an advisor to Teagle assessment projects at participating universities.
