Tentative Future Plans

TermFall 2013
Activities
  • Assessment (measurement) of outcomes
  • Analysis and discussion of assessment data and next steps
  • Implementation of planned changes and reassessment
More DetailsWe plan to continue what has already been started, including assessment, analysis, and discussion. We will continue to do a "SLO check" regularly so students can identify which outcomes are being addressed.

We will also expand SLO Bingo and SLO Jeopardy because students (in other courses) were very engaged in this activity and very proud to show off their expertise.
