制定项目成果评估计划

Every TU program must have an assessment plan that describes expected program learning outcomes and the methods used to evaluate student achieveland of those outcomes.

基本上, an assessment plan articulates what faculty expects students to know and be able to do upon degree completion. It identifies appropriate tools for evaluating the extent to which students are achieving those outcomes and describes how faculty will act on the resulting information. An assessment plan also describes how faculty will evaluate student achievement in the program’s expected learning outcomes and use the information in order to work towards a continuous improvement of the academic programs.

评估计划应包括哪些内容

The following information should be provided in the plan for program outcomes assessment. Program outcomes assessment refers to the measurement of students’ achievement of program-level expected learning outcomes and the use of the results of these assessments to improve the program.

Name of the degree program(s) covered by this assessment plan.

Every TU program must have an assessment plan that describes expected program learning outcomes for the degree program and the methods used to evaluate student achievement of those outcomes. Please provide the name of the author of the plan and the date the plan was approved by program faculty.

规划目标和教授目标的班级.

什么 are the Primary Student Learning Outcomes for this program? 什么 do faculty members expect students will know and be able to do upon degree completion? A program may have many expected outcomes; please provide 3-5 statements of assessable student learning outcomes that program faculty believe to be most important. The plan may include more than five if it is believed that they are essential for the program or if an accreditation process requires more. 然而, the most important outcomes should be listed first and it is expected that reported assessment activity will reflect the relative importance of various outcomes.

在制定这些目标声明时, consider the curriculum – where are students “getting” this knowledge and these skills? For a program-level outcome, one assumes they might get “pieces” of it in various courses. These “pieces” may define the criteria that should be used for assessing achievement of the outcome. 可能会有一些工作(项目), 纸, exam) that requires students to “put the pieces together” so that their level of knowledge/skills at the program level can be assessed.

方法与评价标准

什么 评价方法 will be used to measure student achievement of these expected outcomes? 什么 types of activities will be used and in which class(es). If the plan is to use multiple measures for one outcome, please describe all methods. If one method will be used to assess multiple outcomes, please list that method for all expected outcomes it will be used to assess. Both direct and indirect measures can be included. Examples of direct measures (such as certification exams, subject tests) and indirect methods (exit interviews, 校友满意度调查)可以考虑.

什么 评估标准 or standard will be expected to determine if students have met the learning goal? How will faculty determine the extent to which students have achieved the outcomes? 什么 rubrics or other evaluation instruments will be used.

确定目标评估轮换的时间表.

Please indicate the timeframe for each assessment to be conducted (each semester, 每年, 隔年)

提示

• Include faculty members in the development of the assessment plan, particularly those involved in curriculum planning.
• 制定一个合理的实施计划. Use a timetable to identify annual assessments and bi-annual or tri-annual assessments.
• Send a copy of the assessment plans to the Office of Assessment and 认证 for approval prior to new program proposal or curriculum changes.
• Assessment plans should be updated periodically to reflect program changes in expected student learning outcomes or assessment methods. 评核计划无须每年更新.

评税主任 & 认证 keeps on file a copy of all Program Assessment Plans for the schools, 每个专业，每个浓度. Only when a Program Assessment Plan is changed is it necessary to submit the “new” plan to the Dean of Assessment & 认证. “新”计划将于7月1日到期^st 每年. Reports should be submitted in Microsoft Word format and sent as an email attachment.
