| Learning Outcome (or Gen Ed Essential Skill) | Summary of Results | Reflection on Focus Area | Intepretation of Results |
|---|
| 1. Plan a computer network to meet a variety of business needs. | 80% of students who took CIS-2620 passed this assessment. | These results support the hypothesis. | The design of the course and assessment tools are successful to measure student success. |
| 2. Demonstrate knowledge of how to integrate computer network technologies and services. | 80% of students who completed CIS-2620 were successful in meeting the assessment criteria. | These results support the hypothesis. | This course is successfully designed and the assessments successfully measure student success. |
| 3. Identify security technologies and disaster planning tools necessary to protect network resources. Computer Information | 75% of students who completed CIS-2620 and CIS-2670 successfully demonstrated competency for this learning outcome. | These results support the hypothesis. | These two courses are well designed to deliver knowledge for successfully measured outcomes. |
