Dr. Ann Gagné, Senior Educational Developer for Accessibility & Inclusion at Brock University, invites us to rethink assessment design: not as something to tick off a list, but as something that always takes place in context. Where does the assessment happen? Synchronous, asynchronous, on campus, online, or hybrid? And what does that mean for neurodivergent students? Topics covered: The breadth of neurodivergence beyond ADHD and autism — Sonny Jane Wise's umbrella model Dynamic disabilities and dynamic support needs Flexibility vs. rigidity: rigidity is not rigour Meaningful scaffolding vs. scaffolding for its own sake On-campus assessments: group work, sensory considerations, the cult of immediacy, pen-and-paper-only assessments Online assessments: accessible materials, choice without overwhelm Hybrid assessments: power differentials and how to address them Case study: teaching in a 180-person active learning classroom A session that invites reflection, not a new checklist.
