Assessment Methods

MethodsWe provide four exams in this class. These exams are kept on file after every semester. Each question on the exams addresses different SLOs for the course. Periodically, we pull answers to particular questions and review across all sections for assessment of our effectiveness. We also ask, in the final exams, end-of-semester student evaluation questions on things such as what was the toughest, easiest, funnest, least valuable, etc.

Future Plans
