About the Workshop
Expanding Learning Assessment with Action Sociometry
Action Sociometry is a wonderful tool for assessing and strengthening adult learners'
knowledge and skills in any educational context. Sociometric strategies can help establish
norms and safety in the beginning stages of a learning environment, reveal patterns
of learning, aid in building learning partnerships, and ultimately place the role
of teacher into the hands of adult students. This will be a very lively workshop,
and especially of interest to anyone teaching adults in formal or informal educational
settings.
