HLTH 82 - Field Experience in Healthcare Interpreting - Stage 5 - Nora Goodfriend-Koven
Assessment
| Assessment Methods | - Analysis of exam, quiz, or homework items linked to specific SLOs
- Assignments based on rubrics (such as essays, projects, and performances)
- Student self-assessments (such as reflective journals and surveys)
- Capstone projects or final summative assignments
- External (outside CCSF) data (such as licensing exam and placement rates)

| Assessment Description | Assessment included a combination of self-assessments, internship placement and evaluation forms, and other work performed. Students were required to identify areas of strength and challenge (personal learning objectives), and to work towards improving their overall practice of interpreting. These results were quantified using a point system. External data was provided by site-supervisors at local hospitals and clinics who evaluated each student's performance each time s/he interpreted, and also over-all performance as a possible employee. |

| Analysis Summary | All assignments for HLTH 82 were used to assess all of the student learning objectives. The criteria was to achieve a level of 80% of the class receiving a score of 80% or higher. This goal was surpassed - indicating that students are work-place ready after having completed this course. Some of the specific assignments did not achieve the hoped-for passing rate, however none were less than 70% of the students achieving 80% scores or higher. |
|---|
| Next Steps Planned | In spring 2013 (the next time this course will be taught); some of the assignments and criteria will be revised to more exactly evaluate each SLO - hopefully making the data-gathering procedure a little less cumbersome. |
