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 2017-18 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.

The application can be found here.

Submit your application by October 30th!

Local Action/Global Impact: PUB 9208

Speaker Marilyn Strickland, Mayor of Tacoma
The phrase “think global, act local” is a call to arms of local activists. It is probably most strongly associated with environmental issues, but has been applied as well in many other policy realms including trade, immigration, transportation, healthcare, and education. Mayor Marilyn Strickland argues that there has been a shift from national to local governments, such as Tacoma, in seeking progress on these issues.
