Program Assessment Support

The P-2 will serve as a roadmap linking each of the individual program-level learning outcomes to a particular required course, experience, grouping, or other part of the curriculum. Each learning outcome will require an indication as to where it is (1) introduced, (2) developed, and (3) assessed. Note that the program learning outcomes and required courses that appear on the P-2 form actually originate on the separate P-1 form.

Program Assessment Workshops

Creating a Program Assessment Plan for Academic Units

Register at Faculty Development OneStop

Following this workshop we assume that you will continue to work closely with your unit to further develop and refine your assessment plan using the work we've done together as a foundation, as well as complete the Program Assessment Form, P-2.

We will help you:

• Identify and explain the purpose and process of assessment, including how assessment data might be used to identify strengths, weaknesses, and gaps within the curriculum that can be addressed to improve student learning;
• Identify & evaluate the components of an assessment plan;
• Draft a preliminary curriculum map for your program that identifies specific courses where program learning outcomes are addressed;
• Define expected levels of student achievement and develop corresponding assessment methods to build a foundation for a comprehensive program-level assessment plan;
• Develop a plan to gather, analyze, and interpret assessment data to determine how well student learning matches expectations;
• Understand how to align your assessment plan with the categories required for the Program Assessment form (the P-2) and to assess that plan using the workshop rubric;
• Understand how to complete the Program Assessment form (P-2);
  

 
What Do I Need to Bring?
