Improvement Details

Details1. Revised the course outline to reflect new course identifier for Fall 2014 (Consumer Ed Department is merging with Health Education Department), and refined/streamlined the course SLOs. Approved by Curriculum Committee in Fall 2013.

2. This fall made HOEC 98 a tech-enhanced course, a valuable improvement to keep course content organized and easily accessible for students. Also used the questionnaire feature of Insight to gather course evaluation data and students' self-assessment of mastery of course SLOs.

Assessment Methods

MethodsCourse evaluation survey administered via Insight, for students to reflect and self-evaluate their mastery of course SLOs and to share relevant feedback. For each of the SLOs, students were asked to rate themselves on how well they think they achieved the SLO based on a scale of 1(lowest) to 10(highest).
