Each group has an appointed team lead. • The Assessment Scholars were also assigned to one of five multi-team transfer groups (Arts & Humanities, Business, Education, Humans Services and STEM). • Teams developed rubrics and assessment work plans through: • Summer Institutes • Fall All-Project Meetings • Winter All-Project Meetings • Monthly Team Meetings during the academic year
