Description | "Course assignments, from daily homework to term papers, provide students with the practice that allows them to learn and apply the material presented in class. Other CATs in this handbook focus students’ attention on how they carry out course assignments. Assignment Assessments ask students to consider the value of these assignments to them as learners."

Purpose | "Assignment Assessments help faculty see their assignments through students’ eyes, giving them feedback on the learning value of the homework, papers, and projects they assign. This CAT, like Reading Rating Sheets, prompts students to think about and evaluate their assignments as learning tools." — Classroom Assessment Techniques, Angelo, TA and Cross, KP, 1993 |
