Review of Assessment Cycle Documenting & Reporting

SLOs College Level Division Level (CAS, EDU, HHS, MGT) Program Level Course Level

Draft Naz SLOs Graduates of Nazareth College will be able to… “Use the modes of inquiry of the liberal arts and sciences to discover and develop personal and philosophical/intellectual, ethical, spiritual and aesthetic values”

Draft Naz SLOs Nazareth College graduates will be able to… “demonstrate intellectual adaptability, flexibility, and critical thinking that can be applied to the fundamental knowledge of their respective degree program”

Draft Naz SLOs Graduates of Nazareth College will be able to… “successfully transition from student to professional and meet the demands of their selected discipline”

Draft Naz SLOs Nazareth College graduates will be able to… “participate as an engaged member of the local and global community, professionally and civically”

Types of Evidence Direct: evaluation of student learning by faculty Indirect: perceptions of student learning by student

Direct evidence can be… Papers Test scores or test questions Course assignments Portfolio sections or whole portfolio Faculty discussion of student learning in department/program meeting

Indirect evidence can be… Surveys Interviews Focus groups

Discuss Results What does the evidence mean? Are students able to meet and exceed your expected outcomes? What areas do students need more coverage, support, etc. do your students need?

Improve Teaching & Learning Revising SLOs to more accurately represent what skills, knowledge, etc. your program values in a graduate Revising curriculum: course content, sequence, readings Professional development: a faculty reading circle, attend workshop, etc.

Reporting We need ways to document the wonderful work that you do with your students in order to: –Make visible the teaching and learning for students and parents –Report program assessment cycle to college and wider community –Satisfy accreditation requirements

Can Assessment Be Meaningful & Easy? YES… One model moving forward: Review SLOs Use an indirect measure (question on program course eval, IDEA, survey) Hold end of year program retreat where all program faculty discuss student work- areas that could use improvement related back to SLOs Document this discussion (invite an Assessment GA or coordinator to the retreat to take notes)
