Core Curriculum Proposal Workshop

Overview  Defining Assessment  Steps in Assessment  Time to Practice Developing an Assessment Plan  Q&A and Wrap Up

Assessment is  “… [t]he systematic collection, review, and use of information about educational programs undertaken for the purpose of improving student learning and development.” Ted Marchese

Assessment Plan Template This will make more sense as we give details!

Core Curriculum Course Assessment  Step 1: Define Student Learning Outcomes  Step 2: Determine Methods and Frequency  Step 3: Set Criteria  Step 4: Collect and Analyze  Step 5: Use the Results ("Close the loop")

Student Learning Outcomes  Statement of what we think our students should know, do, think after taking the class  Observable behaviors or actions that students will demonstrate  Specific and measureable  Address state mandated component objectives

Assessment Methods  Are related to the outcome being measured  Techniques used to directly measure student attainment of stated learning outcomes.  Describes the data source (i.e., embedded questions in a test, rubrics).  Course grades or indirect measures are not sufficient.

Why course grades are not sufficient  Course grades often:  contain other criteria beyond learning  Participation  Attendance  reflect various grading scales  do not provide enough detailed information about what students actually learned

Assessment Methods Direct  Embedded Test Questions  Rubrics Indirect  Surveys  Focus groups  Student self-ratings  Honors, awards

For Core Curriculum??? DIRECT

Criterion  Indicates minimum level of proficient performance  Examples:  “At least X% of students will receive a proficiency (3) or higher on a scale of 1 to 4 (4 = Mastery, 1 = needs substantial improvement.” OR  “At least X% of students will answer X% embedded test questions correctly.”

Good assessments are useful (and used)  Actionable - gives information specific to learning outcomes  Give us reasonably accurate, truthful, and useful information Adapted from Assessing Student Learning: A Common Sense Guide by Linda Suskie

Sample

A chance to practice...  Write a suitable outcome for 1 or 2 objectives  How will it be assessed?  What is the criterion for success?  How often do you expect this data will be collected?
