Reflection and Question 4 Given the realization that we achieve proficiency through widespread participation, how is or could this responsibility be shared at your college? 15

ACCJC Requirements Program Review and Planning The Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC) has clearly stated its expectation that colleges be at the "Continuous Sustainable Quality Improvement" level for Program Review and Planning on rubrics that the ACCJC has provided. 16

ACCJC Requirements Student Learning Outcomes In addition, the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC) has clearly stated its expectation that colleges be at the “Proficiency" level for Student Learning Outcomes on a rubric that the ACCJC has provided by Fall

SLOA Proficiency Level Fall 2012  ACCJC expects colleges to be at the "Proficiency" level for student learning outcomes (SLOs) and assessment by Fall  How does "Proficiency” look according to the ACCJC Rubric? 18

Proficiency Rubric for SLOs The Revised ACCJC Rubric covers 7 essential areas  Outcomes and authentic assessment  Widespread institutional dialogue  Integrated decision-making  Resources allocation  Reporting  Alignment  Student awareness 19

Proficiency Level for SLOs ACCJC – The Revised Rubric (6/24/11) Student learning outcomes and authentic assessment are in place for courses, programs and degrees. There is widespread institutional dialogue about the results of assessment and identification of gaps. Decision-making includes dialogue on the results of assessment and is purposefully directed toward aligning institution-wide practices to support and improve student learning. Appropriate resources continue to be allocated and fine-tuned. Comprehensive assessment reports exist and are completed and updated on a regular basis. Course student learning outcomes are aligned with degree student learning outcomes. Students demonstrate awareness of goals and purposes of courses and programs in which they are enrolled. 20

Assessment Dimensions Three dimensions with different areas of focus: Institutional assessment (ILOs) Curricular and program assessment (PLOs) Course and learner-centered assessments (SLOs) 21
