Emphasizing Non-Disposable Assignments

Non-disposable assignments offer students a chance to create work that has value beyond the classroom. These assignments allow students to produce tangible outputs, such as blogs or personal projects, which they can showcase in their portfolios or resumes. For instance, students in a communication ethics course might write blog posts on Medium, learning not just how to write effectively but also how to engage in peer reviews. This approach not only enhances their skills but also fosters ownership of their learning, making the educational experience more relevant and engaging.
