Data Analysis

Data Shared With

Faculty and staff within our department

Data Sharing Methods
  • Face-to-face meetings
  • Phone
Data Summary100% of the students were able to create a web page using images, text and links. This was the first comprehensive task given in week 3 of the course.

95% of the students were able to transfer the site to the server and maintain it. If a student cannot do this task, they cannot pass the class, as grading is done on the published site only.

80% of the students were able to properly implement CSS

93% of the students were able to design a page using tables and Layers (AP DIVs)
Analysis SummaryThe majority of students were able to achieve all 4 outcomes by completing weekly projects designed to match the SLOs. The SLOs were assessed more than once, as midterm and final projects were cumulative, and tested all past material. However only the first assessment is being reported.
Next Steps PlannedCreate surveys to capture students' opinions on most challenging topics.
