More about the slide deck

This short deck of slides was created to help trainers incorporate lesson concepts into their materials. Look in the speaker notes for guidance based on the lesson content, ideas for discussion questions, and links to resources.  

These slides are based on the content of Lesson 4 and build on the content of Lessons 1 through 3. These slides ground the audience’s responsible research assessment knowledge in practical, real-world examples of change. The slides introduce how traditional assessment methods might be innovated upon or modified by more responsible approaches. Lesson 4 is ideal for audiences who are ready to think about tangible reforms, like using narrative CVs or bias-mitigating review panels, within their own professional contexts.
