Earth Sciences Department Program Learning Outcomes & Assessment Rubrics For Geology

SLO 1 To document, interpret, and map geological formations in the field by outcrop study with 95% of the observable features accurately recognized and located. (See: USGS Standard http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2002/of02-370/soller1.html)

SLO 1 Assessment Rubric LO: To document, interpret, and map geological formations in the field by outcrop study with 95 (80)% of the observable features accurately recognized and located. KPI: Perform minimum of 80% in any category and earn at least 20 out of 30 pts.

SLO 2 To use computer software to analyze and interpret geologic data

SLO 3 To work effectively in teams in order to solve problems relevant to Geology, keeping in mind societal issues such as natural hazards, resource utilization and conservation, and environmental change.

SLO 3 LO: Work effectively in teams in order to solve problems relevant to Geology KPI: Perform minimum of 70% in any category and earn at least 20 out of 30 pts

SLO 4 To demonstrate effective written and oral communication skills in order to transmit complex technical information in a clear and concise manner, including the use of multimedia tools.
