Student Learning Outcomes, Assessment, and the Curricular Process Ginni May, ASCCC North Representative, Sacramento City College Michael Wyly, Solano Community College ASCCC Curriculum Institute July 8-11, 2015 Anaheim, CA

Overview We will consider the following questions: What is SLO Assessment? How do we use our assessments to inform our curriculum? When does assessment data meaningfully reveal needs to make curricular modifications--whether it be about prerequisites, course design or even program design? How does your college use SLO assessment, and what processes make for effective practices in SLO and curricular improvement?

What is SLO Assessment? Evaluating the learning and mastering of core ideas in the curriculum…

How do we use our assessments to inform our curriculum? First of all… Assessment of student learning is integral to what we do. ACCJC requirement: II.A.3. The institution identifies and regularly assesses learning outcomes for courses, programs, certificates and degrees using established institutional procedures. The institution has officially approved and current course outlines that include student learning outcomes. In every class section students receive a course syllabus that includes learning outcomes from the institution’s officially approved course outline.

How do we use our assessments to inform our curriculum? Some models… Sacramento City College: Department SLO Assessment Multi-year Plan – 6 year cycle to align with Program Review Course SLO Assessment reporting – annually to align with Unit Plan cycle Annual Reporting Form for each course includes: SLOs, Assessment methods, Summary of assessment results, Plans for follow-up changes Program SLOs, General Education SLOs, and Institutional SLOs are assessed through a course-embedded approach

How do we use our assessments to inform our curriculum? Some models… Solano Community College: Individual course SLO assessment per departmental multi-year plans as part of Program Review cycle, including how SLO assessments support Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs) SLO Assessment reporting: 1. until F 2014, an aggressive cycle wherein all courses were individually assessed in a given academic year; 2. beginning with AY , course SLO assessments reporting annually per five-year cycle to inform regular PLO assessment as well as updates to departmental EMPs SCC SLO Assessment Form includes for each SLO: Success Criteria; Results; Planned Action (which may inform course specific changes or suggest macro-changes such as at the program level) The English Department is currently piloting an approach for embedding College equity goals into our assessment process: departmental equity goals; SLO assessments; analyses of assessment results as they relate to department- specific equity/success data Program Level Outcomes assessments are informed by course-level SLO assessments. Institutional Level Outcomes (ILOs) and GE Learning Outcomes (GELOs) are currently being revised at SCC with the aim of developing clearer and more sustainable methods of assessment through a course embedded process. This is a work in progress.

How do we use our assessments to inform our curriculum? Some models… Your colleges:

How do we use our assessments to inform our curriculum? Examples… Add more course time to a specific topic Implement a prerequisite Change course sequencing Others?

How does your college use SLO assessment, and what processes make for effective practices in SLO and curricular improvement?

When does assessment data meaningfully reveal needs to make curricular modifications whether these changes be to prerequisites, course design? What if the need for a prerequisite creates worries for enrollment? What if the assessment data calls for real programmatic change? Discontinuance?

Discussion

Thank you!
