4. Login Page Access the website at: https://app.weaveonline.com/UvaWise/login.aspx Weave login is the personal ID part of your email address Password – a password will be given to you, which you may change

5. OUTCOMES/OBJECTIVES  Good outcomes are specific, measurable, and achievable  Outcomes should have:  a short title  a longer description  Use measurable verbs such as;  association with the College’s Strategic Plan and/or General Education  Each outcome needs to be associated with at least one measure

6. Outcomes/Objectives

7. MEASURES  Explain how you intend to measure the associated Outcomes  It evaluates progress toward the Outcomes/Objectives you set forth  Each Measure must be associated with a Source of Evidence otherwise WEAVEonline will not work  Measures may be direct or indirect

8. SOURCES OF EVIDENCE

9. MEASURES – an example of entering data

10. ACHIEVEMENT TARGETS  It is necessary to create a target for performance anticipated  An example of a target would be: “95% of students will achieve at least an 8 on a scale of 1-10”  A target should be quantifiable  Note: you must first add a Measure that is related to and Outcome/Objective before an achievement target can be added

11. FINDINGS  All data collected for a particular measure is entered in the findings section  Once data is entered you need to declare whether your achievement target was Met or not by selecting the appropriate radio button

12. ACTION PLAN TRACKING  If your Achievement Target was not Met, develop an Action Plan to improve future results.  Or you may review existing Action Plans in the Action Plan Tracking Section  Actions may also be taken to further strengthen an already strong area of performance  Associate an Action with a Measure/Objective and describe resources needed  Even if you have met all your targets; Action Plans are required for any opportunities for improvement in the upcoming year

13. ACTION PLAN TRACKING

14. ACHIEVEMENT SUMMARY/ANALYSIS  Currently, they are two Analysis questions focusing on strengths and weaknesses perceived as a result of assessment activities  An area of reflection and integration  Explore what evidence means and what needs to be done  Bulk of narrative located and should be full and thorough  May be speculative

15. ANNUAL REPORTING  A program’s “public face”  Serves as an abstract of the unit’s overall activities  Most of the information will pertain to assessment, but also places to highlight broader activities the unit’s faculty/staff are involved with  Most important Assessment sections are:  Executive Summary – the year’s assessment highlights  Improvement from Action Plans – any action taken on Action Plans  Challenges – any difficulties during the academic year

16. DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT  A repository for all documents the program employs in assessment  Documents may be connected to various areas in WEAVEonline  Creates an archive of documents  Examples of documents to upload:  Rubrics  Surveys  Reports
