Program Is our academic program achieving its goals? By purpose Formative Encourages questioning, introspection, and change Summative Focuses on achievement, performance review, and / or grading

Driving forces Need / push for program assessment data Current & prospective students Current & prospective faculty Taxpayers & other donors Employers Legislatures & other government entities Administrators

Program assessment steps (1 of 3) Recognize the need for assessment. In consultation with faculty & other stakeholder groups, develop a program mission. Articulate educational outcomes. Cognitive: what should students know? Affective: what should students value? Psychomotor: what should they be able to do?

Program assessment steps (2 of 3) Determine where the outcomes are developed in the program. Identify & evaluate, or develop, assessment tools for the outcomes. Surveys & interviews Portfolios Exams & projects

Program assessment steps (3 of 3) Collect data. Focus on the overall program results. Stay away from using data to evaluate individual faculty. Analyze data for improvement opportunities. Refine goals & tools, and start the cycle again.
