DISCUSSION
ACTION STEPS
CLO assessment
update
Culture & Community: Paul reported that the Team supported adding
little and no improvement to the graduate survey question responses. The
Team also supported developing a more holistic assessment to be used on
assessment day (assesses whole college experience) – will require
development of writing prompts and re-vamping the rubric. For spring,
the team will pilot the essay at the department level in humanities/social
sciences courses as previously planned.
Pilot department level
essay/rubric assessment;
develop prompts and
rubric for institutionwide assessment.
Computer L:iteracy: Kate reported that the Team has decided to use the
Skill Check tool even though it is more expensive. The rationale is that it
better matches the outcomes established, will be customizable, and will
also work for entrance assessment allowing pre and post data. Rob and
Anne volunteered respiratory care and CRJ students for the pilot for total
of 24 students. The goal is 30 students.
Project proposal should go to PAC, Caucus, Denas Plus, MAC.
Committee agreed that presentation could focus on information on
Student Success Plan. Scheduled for 5/28.
