CSLO Assessment Procedure Indentify courses for assessment of each CSLO Select courses with enrollment of over 5 students with 45+ credits Randomly order selected courses Randomly sample students with 45+ credits in those courses to attain a 10% sample size Request artifacts from courses Student names, instructor names are kept confidential School administrative assistants pull and copy sampled student work and submit to Assessment Committee and returns all artifacts to instructor Committee meets to do a consensus assessment using rubrics Committee consists of representatives and content experts from each school Results are compiled, analyzed and shared with college community Copied artifacts are destroyed This procedure is constantly under review as part of the analysis

7.

8. Questions we still have Do we want to give feedback to programs? Faculty (at their request)? In what form? How can we maintain anonymity for students and instructors? How will we assess large groups of artifacts? What are the logistics? What kinds of recommendations to we foresee as we analyze artifacts in an institutional manner?
