Assessment Criteria: 70% of students demonstrating proficiency based on final course grade.

Results: 92% of students demonstrated proficiency based on the final course grade by earning a 70% or more.
Planned ImprovementsFaculty needs to meet and discuss final exam contents and results AND class contents and assessments methods. 92% of students passing the class with a 70% or above is inconsistent with only 29% passing the final exam with a 70% or above. The number of students demonstrating proficiency in the class should be consistent with the number demonstrating proficiency on the final exam.
