Programming Assessment

Why Do We Assess?!? Because Paul said so?!?

Components to Programming Assessment Define your goal Define your learning outcomes Pick an assessment that makes the most sense for your goal and learning outcomes.

Goal A goal is the overall accomplishment of your program.

SMART Goals S: Specific M:Measureable A: Assignable R: Realistic T: Time-based

Learning Outcomes vs. Program Outcomes Difference? Program Outcomes Example: The undergraduate research office will increase support for student attendance at regional, national, and international conferences. Learning Outcomes Example: Students will be able to demonstrate effective communication skills as a result of participating in the Leadership Program. What do you think we use in housing?

ABCD Structure of Learning Outcomes A: Audience (Who): Who does the outcome pertain to? B: Behavior (What): What do you expect the audience to know/be able to do? C: Condition (How): Under what conditions or circumstances will the learning occur? D: Degree (How much): How much will be accomplished, how well will the behavior need to be performed, and to what level?

Examples Students who attend the study skills program will state the importance of planning their studying in order to plan and not cram. Students who attend the time management program will articulate 3 ways to keep their classroom/co-curricular activities organized such as calendar/alarm, use of technology, and to-do lists in order to be academically successful.

The 3 Ms When writing outcomes check the 3 Ms M #1: Meaningful: How does the outcome support the goal? M #2: Manageable: What is needed in order to achieve the outcome and is it realistic to achieve? M #3: Measureable: How will you know if the outcome is achieved? What assessment method will you use?

Bloom’s Taxonomy 6 Main outcomes: Comprehension Action verbs: Match, restate, explain, summarize Application Action verbs: prepare, produce, choose Analysis Action verbs: compare, analyze, survey

Cont… Synthesis Action verbs: compose, design, construct Evaluation Action verbs: judge, relate, criticize Knowledge Action verbs: describe, memorize, identify

Bloom’s Taxonomy Wheel

Assessment Quantitative Focuses on #’s Qualitative Focuses on texts and narratives Examples

Types of Assessment Direct: looking at actual data/student answers Pre and Post test Multiple Choice Fill in the blank Embedded/On the Spot questions Others? Indirect: opinions or thoughts Surveys 3 types of surveys Others?

Time to Practice! Groups of 6-7 Planning an inclusion program: You pick inclusion topic! Develop a goal, 3 learning outcomes, and your method of assessment.
