Institutional Research welcomes assessment coordinator
Michelle Rogers has been named the assessment coordinator at Drake. She will join a collaborative team committed to using assessment as a means to improve academic programs and student learning. Rogers will partner with administration, faculty, staff, and students to develop and implement assessment plans for institution-wide programs. Rogers will also assist in providing workshops for ongoing assessment initiatives and serve on appropriate campus committees.
She previously worked with the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium on its digital library project to support K-12 teachers in implementing formative assessment practices in their instruction. She is completing her doctoral work in educational psychology at the University of Iowa (UI).
Rogers has taught courses in educational psychology at the University of Iowa and presented her research at numerous conferences. She was honored with the prestigious Dean’s Fellowship at UI and received various grants, including the Iowa Educational Research and Evaluation award and the Iowa Measurement Research Foundation award.
