| Performance Indicator |
You must provide assessments results for each program, concentration, specialization, etc. accredited or to be accredited. You must have direct, summative, formative and comparative results. |
| 1. Student Learning Results |
A student learning outcome is one that measures a specific competency attainment. Examples of a direct assessment (evidence) of student learning attainment that might be used include: capstone performance, third-party examination, faculty-designed examination, professional performance, licensure examination). Add these to the description of the measurement instrument in column two:
Direct - Assessing student performance by examining samples of student work
Indirect - Assessing indicators other than student work such as getting feedback from the student or other persons who may provide relevant information.
Formative – An assessment conducted during the student’s education.
Summative – An assessment conducted at the end of the student’s education.
Internal – An assessment instrument that was developed within the business unit.
External – An assessment instrument that was developed outside the business unit.
Comparative – Compare results to external students using data from the U.S. Department of Education Research and Statistics, or results from a vendor providing comparable data. Internal comparative data may be between classes, online and on ground classes, professors, programs, campuses, etc.
