Describe bias as it relates to the creation, implementation, and evaluation of student assessment. How do you manage or remove bias and make sure assessments are reliable and valid?

Locate a published assessment tool and evaluate it for bias.

Describe how the assessment shows bias and post a suggested rewrite so it is more objective.

In your response posts to your peers, evaluate the assessments that were rewritten to be more objective/unbiased.

Were these modifications effective? highlight the strengths and weaknesses that you can see in the revised assessments and propose alternate ways the assessments could have been modified to remove bias.
