Abstract
In a year-long, grant-supported collaborative effort, St. Cloud State University’s Assessment Office and Faculty Center for Teaching Excellence created a Classroom Assessment Techniques (CATs) faculty development project. This project was targeted at departments across campus at St. Cloud State University, with the intent of creating a university climate of formative assessment while improving teaching and learning. This article describes the purposes, stages of implementation, and results of the project as measured by a pre-test and post-test survey. The pre-and post-test surveys indicate that the project was highly effective in impacting the use of CATs among participants and their departmental colleagues.
