Data Analysis
Data Shared With |
|
---|---|
Data Sharing Methods | Face-to-face meetings |
Data Summary | Students have had difficulty in getting expediency needs addressed in the exercises (not fast enough) Students have not spent enough time with the reading./printed instructional material (Developed from analysis of questions missed, quality of work made during timed tests) |
Analysis Summary | Students should be able to quickly complete drawings to a consistent level of proficiency and clarity. Students that completed more of the class exercises performed better at semester's end Students should be comfortable with the terminology of the course content. Tests on terminology are graded using std testing practices. |
Next Steps Planned | Improvement - students need to be "enticed" into reading more material. Solution - book was found inadequate - replace book. Improvement - Students need to be "trained" to develop speed along side base skills. Solution - develop more in-class spot-speed exercises |

More Details | Have changed structure of course to include more "structured" in-class quick-work/quizzes to develop speed skills. Will test and compare to previous semester at end of current semester. Have changed book from Sketching instructional to blueprint reading to illustrate "downstream" needs of student output - new book contains much more detail re terminology of course content. Will compare test scores from previous semester with current semester at end of semester. Adopted more immediate "hands on" exposure for lab work w/less direct structure. This is an expirement to determine what "cements" classwork into student retention and speed. |
