Assessment

Assessment Methods

External (outside CCSF) data (such as licensing exam and placement rates)

Assessment DescriptionEmployer surveys were sent to all employers with WRKEXP students assessing two questions around student outcomes.

Both outcomes are to be included in the revised course outline. Course outline revision to take place in the Fall 2013 semester due to other more pressing revisions needing priority and the curriculum committee load.
Learning OutcomesEmployers (external assessment) were asked to answer questions as follows:

Does the student demonstrate ethical and professional behavior in the work setting?

Do you believe the student is suitable for a career in the child development area? If so, what additional areas of education and training are needed for employment?

Face-to-face meetings

Data SummaryAll 16 employers answered the questions positively. Some gave specific recommendations for additional support needed.
Analysis SummaryWhile employers rate students positively in these two areas, additional employer surveys need to be sent to all SF CDEV employers to assess PLO's. 75 employers were surveyed this semester for PLO assessment and these questions need to be included so that course and PLO responses can be compared. Work Experience and Field Experience courses are capstone courses, so employer feedback is crucial.
Next Steps PlannedNeed to complete revision of course outline and bring to curriculum committee in FAll 2013.
