Data Summary | Our benchmark is to have 70% or more of the students who complete the course able to successfully perform each outcome. Based on these results, we feel out students are successfully achieving our outcomes, with the exception of D (evaluating business feasibility.) |
Planned Improvements | Next semester we plan to add an in-class group activity where students will evaluate the feasibility of an example business so that they can more easily apply the process to evaluation of their own business in a homework assignment. |
