Learning Outcomes Assessment project application now available

Now is a good time to start thinking about potential outcomes assessment projects for next year.

The Office of Institutional Assessment and Data Management (IADM), in collaboration with the Learning Outcomes Assessment Steering Committee, will be sponsoring 3-5 faculty-led projects during the 2018-2019 academic year. The projects will focus on “closing the loop” with assessment; teams of faculty will “review, assess, reflect and act” based on student learning outcomes for one course or series of courses.

Each project will be led by one faculty member, with the expectation that at least one additional faculty member (full- or part-time) will participate in the project. The maximum amount available for each project is $2,000. Applications are due October 22, 2018.

Want some help getting started? The Learning Outcomes Assessment Steering Committee will be hosting a training event on June 14th, from 2:30 – 4:00pm in the Board Room (Room 1010M). The session will provide an opportunity to gain some background about assessment and see examples of previous projects. This session counts towards the required 10 hours of training for faculty (as “Other assigned training”).
