Data Analysis

Data Shared With
  • Instructors of the same course (at CCSF)
  • Faculty and staff within our department
  • Faculty and staff from related programs/departments
  • Students
Data Sharing Methods
  • Face-to-face meetings
  • Shared document files
Data SummaryOut of 34 students, 27 performed at a level of 80% or higher.
Analysis Summary79% achieved a B grade in cashier assessment; the original goal was 75%. I will strive to achieve an 85% competency next semester.
Next Steps PlannedThis semester, I learned that using the rubric daily was not feasible so I reverted back to a more general checklist method. Next semester, a more detailed assessment will occur by using a rubric once a week and calculating the results over the entire semester. Also, I plan to develop more assessments related to the managerial functions of POS use. Assessment will be through written tests.
