Last day of class!

Plan for the day

Talking about remaining assignments
- Last "reading quiz"
  - Yes, it's in quotes for a reason
- Final assignment
Course wrap-up activity
Course evaluations

Please read this article and answer the questions on Canvas as best you can.
- Estimated time commitment: ~1 hour
- Deadline: May 7, 11:59 p.m.
- Why are we doing this: One of the goals of First-Year Seminars is to read and assess increasingly sophisticated texts critically. This is the College's way of assessing how well this course meets that goal.
- Any good-faith effort will count as full credit for your reading quiz score. You will not be graded for the purposes of our class, but please do your best.

Remember that your final assessment is due on May 1, 2025.
If you want to hand it in later than that, that is fine! Please email me no later than this Friday, April 25, at 11:59 p.m.
Remember: no feedback after May 1!

Question: how was your first year of college?
You will work with your group to develop a self-report assessment of how well someone's first year of college at Wake Forest went.
In order to determine this, you will...
- Decide what dimensions you want to measure
- Come up with least 3-4 questions you will ask to measure each dimensions
- Articulate how you will assess the reliability and validity of this assessment. In particular, we need:
  - Test-retest reliability
  - Inter-item reliability
  - Concurrent and discriminant validity
  - Predictive validity

Wake Forest University and the Department of Psychology are committed to effective teaching.
Students assist in maintaining and enhancing this effectiveness by completing Student Evaluations of Teaching Forms in a thoughtful and honest manner.
Students are asked to take time to respond to all questions and make suggestions for course improvement.
Student evaluations can help improve instruction and are used in the annual faculty evaluation, reappointment, and promotion and tenure processes.
If you do not wish to participate in the process, write “no comment” on the form and turn it in.
Instructors are not present during the completion of evaluations.
Instructors are not given student comments, nor informed of the results of the evaluation, until after final grades have been submitted.
