3. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Implications of Model You have Drawn What does your visualization suggest about how students learn? What does your visualization suggest about models of pedagogy? What does your visualization suggest about the role of assessment?

5. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Challenges Assessment of student learning has often lagged behind the use of new models of teaching and learning. The result has been a disconnect among learning, pedagogy, and assessment. LearningAssessment

6. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University How might we address this disconnect? Pedagogy Assessment Learning

8. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University One student’s perspective “So you get here and they start asking you, ‘What do you…want to major in? …what courses [do] you want to take?’ and you get the impression that’s what it’s all about – courses and majors. So, you take the courses. You get your card punched. You try a little this and a little that. Then comes GRADUATION. And you wake up and you look at this bunch of courses and then it hits you: They don’t add up to anything. It’s just a bunch of courses. It doesn’t mean a thing.”

31. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University ePort goals in relation to the PULs Student engagement with the PULs throughout entire undergraduate experience at IUPUI. Clearer, more coherent curriculum to support students' mastery of the PULs. Assessment of individual student, course, program, and institution with respect to the PULs.

32. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University ePort levels of competence What all undergraduate students at IUPUI should know and be able to do in relation to the PULs within their:  First 26 credit hours (Introductory)  First 56 credit hours (Intermediate)  Major, profession, or academic program (Advanced)  Co-curricular, extra-curricular, work-based learning (Experiential)

33. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Values and Ethics PUL Defined The ability of students to make judgments with respect to individual conduct, citizenship, and aesthetics. A sense of values and ethics is demonstrated by the ability of students to: 1.make informed and principled choices regarding conflicting situations in their personal and public lives and to foresee the consequences of these choices; and 2.recognize the importance of aesthetics in their personal lives and to society. Expectations for Introductory Level: 1.You understand the relationship between discipline-specific values, your personal values, and the choices you make in your academic or personal life; 2.You have applied the values that are important to you in making academic and personal choices about conduct and citizenship; 3.You have made academic or personal choices based on your aesthetic values; 4.You have evaluated an aesthetic experience to demonstrate how this strengthened or changed your understanding of the human condition or culture.

34. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University A Learning Outcome in one of your courses Define your Learning Outcome: What does it mean? Knowledge, skill, or intellectual ability : describe what knowledge, skills or intellectual abilities you want your students to gain How it may be demonstrated: Describe how students may demonstrate that they know, understand, and can do what is expected. What assignments or other demonstration opportunities are provided?

35. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Reflection What do we mean by reflection? What role does reflection play in learning? What kinds of reflection do you expect from your students? What kinds of reflective thinking to you receive from your students? How might we improve reflection?

36. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Definition and elements of reflection in ePort Reflection involves connecting evidence of learning expectations for learning to discvoer and describe intellectual growth. Elements: – Evidence (of learning) – Connection (of evidence to expectations for learning) – Intellectual growth (increased understanding of some larger principle or aspect of learning)

37. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Introductory Reflection Template Example: Critical Thinking Expectation 1: Show that you can use knowledge and understanding to generate and explore new questions from multiple perspectives : – What evidence have you selected to demonstrate this expectation? – How does this evidence show that you have used your knowledge and understanding to generate and explore new questions from multiple perspectives?

38. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Critical Thinking Reflection Template cont. Expectation 2: Solve challenging problems What evidence have to selected to demonstrate that you can solve challenging problems? How does this evidence show that you are able to solve challenging problems?

39. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Critical Thinking Reflection Template cont. Intellectual Growth: How has your understanding of critical thinking changed through your experiences at IUPUI? How has the evidence you have provided influenced this change in your understanding of critical thinking?

42. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Readiness Roadmap for Electronic Student Portfolios Why a roadmap? – To ensure campus has the technological infrastructure to support an ePort – To determine goals for ePort – To involve faculty at the earliest levels – To flesh out potential problems Who should work on the roadmap? – Many faculty in multiple disciplines – Technological support and design staff – Students where feasible

43. ©2003 The Trustees of Indiana University Beginning work on your campus roadmap Working in campus teams, begin to consider the conceptual and technological aspects of the roadmap. First, map out the questions that you would like your campus participants to answer. Second, identify who might be involved in answering those questions. Third, begin the work of answering them.

What role does technology play in providing this evidence? What aggregations of evidence are available at the individual level? What aggregations of evidence are available at the course level? What aggregations of evidence are available at the department level? What aggregations of evidence are available at the school, college, or programmatic level?
