was considered to have met the outcomes measured. Our benchmark goal is to have 70% of our students meet
the outcomes. Based on these results, we feel we are doing fine in all areas except critical thinking. Ideas for
improvement here include…. OR Our surveys combined with focus group interviews indicate we are meeting 3
outcomes, but missing the mark in 2 outcomes. Ideas for improvement include those generated by faculty and
students and include….)

Though you will retain the majority of your data and assessment details in your own records or on your
department or program website, please provide results here. By translating your data to the standard rubric, your
data will be collated and combined with data from other programs and used to complete a review of ILO #1
programs and outcomes. Our highest priority in reviewing these data will be to share and address challenges and
issues our students face in achieving proficiency. Many of those challenges are shared across all programs.
Thank you for contributing your data and insights to this discussion.
If you would like to review the rubric guidelines again, please review them on the ILO#1 Assessment website:
