Writing for Assessment and Learning in the Natural and Mathematical Sciences (WALS) is an NSF-funded project that adapts Calibrated Peer Review (CPR)^TM-- a software application developed in chemistry -- for use in the other natural and mathematical sciences. The project goals are:

1. To create and implement student writing assignments that address critical, complex content in the sciences.
2. To better assess student understanding of key concepts in the sciences.
3. To enhance student learning essential content.
4. To improve student ability to write clearly about mathematics and science.
5. To promote faculty inquiry into what makes certain critical concepts challenging for students and how to help student achieve mastery of this content.

CPR^TM is a web-based writing program with an additional feature that helps students learn how to review each other's work.

This workshop will provide hands-on training on CPR and attendees will have access to individual help. During the workshop participants will also author a draft assignment for later use.
