Participants will share innovative approaches to motivating students in assessment settings, providing valuable insights into effective motivation strategies. Sherry will also share about institutions awarding digital badges based on testing proficiency, which can not only demonstrate accountability but also empower learners to showcase their skills to potential employers, making assessments a win-win for both institutions and students.
