Part 4: Program Learning Outcome Analysis
| Learning Outcome | Population or Course(s) Assessed | Description | Summary of Assessment Results |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1a. Communication: Genre and Medium Awareness, Application, and Versatility | No AFST courses were assessed in the 22-23 cycle. |
| Interpretation of Assessment findings |
|---|
The Absence of assessment processes in this course offers a unique opportunity to rethink assessment practices. The coming cycle’s assessment activities will focus on preparation for the transition to the Assessment Academy model in fall 2023. With the help of the Senior Director of Assessment, faculty in teaching this course will engage in facilitated activities and conversations designed to address faculty understanding and perceptions of the role of assessment in effective teaching and learning. Planned activities, including an Introduction to Assessment workshop and discipline-specific guided conversations, will (re)introduce concepts of informed teaching and prompt faculty to begin considering what they want to know about their teaching, student success, and the curriculum.
