Data SummaryCourse Instructor and the Program coordinator (me) discussed the results. Four Assignments and two short quizzes were reviewed and matched to the SLOs being examined. The goal was for 80% of student to attain at least 80% or higher on assessments. Of the data reported, this was attained or surpassed on all of the assignments reviewed.

Assign #5 - Health Education Presentations (SLO E & A): 90%

Quiz # 1: Quest 4 & 5: 85%

Quiz # 2: Quest 2 and 5: 90%
Analysis SummaryEach assignment had a rubric that measured at least 5 ares reflecting understanding and application of SLOs. Additional questions were added to quizzes that measured understanding of SLOs as well. Over all, the majority of students surpassed the 80% scored desired on assignments and quizzes. Students have demonstrated understanding of selected SLOs through assignments, presentations and quizzes.
Next Steps PlannedDuring the Fall 2013 semester, I will be revising Health 64 course outline and submitting to curriculum committee. This will include possibly consolidating some SLOs and updating at least 2 assignments along with rubrics to more closely measure SLOs.

Please note that we in Fall of 2012, we were in stage 3, we reviewed SLOs', discussed with Instructor the assignments that aligned with each SLO and reviewed rubric or developed rubrics (assessment tools) to assess understanding of SLOs. In Spring of 2013, we were in stage 4 having conducted at least one assessment round in Fall of 2012.
