Introduction:
This support article outlines the process for integrating SL&L activities into your Brightspace course when using an Assessment Project in SL&L.
Note: Activities that are part of an SL&L Assessment Project are not graded in Brightspace. Grades for these activities are not transferred to the LMS. If you want to use the same assignment for grading, it must be created in your Brightspace course and integrated with the SL&L activity(ies).
What is an Assessment Project?
An Assessment Project in Student Learning & Licensure (SL&L) by Watermark is a structured evaluation process used by institutions to measure student learning outcomes across a program or department. An Assessment Project allows faculty or administrators to:
- Evaluate student work using standardized rubrics.
- Collect data on learning outcomes for accreditation or program improvement.
- Assess samples or all student submissions (depending on the project design).
- Run juried assessments, where multiple reviewers score student work independently for reliability.
