Assessment Resources & Tools

以下评估资源和工具按主题分类.


Developing Student Learning Outcomes

Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs), describe what students should know, be able to do, 和/或价值在一个特定的教育经历(课程)结束时, program, etc.). slo通常关注学习的三个维度:

  • Knowledge: fundamental cognitive content, core concepts or questions, basic principles of inquiry, a broad history, and/or varied disciplinary techniques.
  • Skills: capacity for applying basic knowledge, analyzing and synthesizing information, assessing the value of information, communicating effectively, and collaborating.
  • Attitudes & values: 情感状态,个人/职业/社会价值和道德原则.

Characteristics of great Program SLOs

  • 与适当的机构学习成果和课程特定的学习成果相一致
  • Specific, clear, and concise
  • Demonstrable and measurable
  • Discrete (i.e. no “double-barrel” verb statements)
  • Realistic and manageable
  • Use active verbs [PDF]康奈尔大学教学与评估中心

Improving through Assessment

以下是评估结果导致的一些常见变化类型和示例(改编自Allen 2011年和CSU Fullerton评估和教育有效性):

Types of ChangeExamples
CurriculumChange prerequisites or GE requirements; Add required courses; Replace existing courses with new ones; Change course sequence; Add internships, 实验室和其他动手学习的机会
Faculty SupportProvide targeted professional development opportunities; Add specialized support to faculty (Library, Academic Technology, etc.); Increase support to promote discussion and community
PedagogyChange course assignments; Add more active-learning components to course design; Change textbooks; Increase opportunities for formative feedback and peer-assisted learning
Student SupportIncrease tutors; Add more online resources; Improve advising to make sure students take the right courses; Provide resources to encourage community building among students and between students and faculty
ResourcesChange the course management system structure; Improve or expand lab spaces; Provide resources to support student independent research
Assessment PlanRefine SLO statements; Change methods and/or measures; Change where (e.g. courses) the data are collected; Collect additional data; Improve data reporting and dissemination mechanisms

高影响实践评估的建议顺序

1. Establish Learning Outcomes

  • 学习成果是你期望学生获得的知识、技能或价值观 
  • 您可以使用现有课程级别的学习成果, your program’s learning outcomes, 或者针对你的HIP写下新的学习成果

2. Choose Assessment Measures

  • 选择直接或间接的措施“嵌入式”评估作为评估和分级工作的双重职责可能是最有效的

3. Data Collection

  • If possible, 从比较或控制球场或部分(可能是同一球场的不同部分)收集基线数据
  • 收集有关学生背景的信息.g.从HIP课程中收集数据并进行分析

4. Two Models for Framing

  • The Assessment I-E-O model (Astin)
    • I =输入(例如,学生先前的理解水平)
    • E = environment (i.e., your HIP intervention)
    • O =输出(例如,学习成果的实现)
  • 主要的问题是:在学生的背景下,HIP干预是否促进了学习成果的实现?
  • PAR代表预测分析报告

  • 了解你的学生在学术周期中的位置.g.,了解年级水平、修完的单元数、修完的主要课程)

  • 收集正规澳门平台十大赌博成功的“预测因素”的信息,包括学习者的特征(如.g., GPA), learner behaviors (e.g.(出勤)、教师行为、HIP干预等

  • 主要问题是:HIP干预如何促进学生在学术周期中的进步, given the various predictors?

5. 秋季向项目负责人提交结果数据

  • 项目评估报告每年秋季提交给学校.
  • 这将有助于您的程序负责人访问您的数据和您的结论.
  • 将您的HIP学习成果与项目学习成果联系起来
