This is posted on behalf of the Learning Outcomes Assessment Committee
Here is a link to a document your colleagues on the Learning Outcomes Assessment Committee (LOAC) just completed in the waning days of Spring term. This “white paper” attempts to give a basic overview of work we have to do, as a community, next year to get in compliance with accreditation requirements around assessment that we’re not yet meeting.
The potential intended audience is literally everybody who teaches or supervises anyone who teaches general education classes. The purpose is to frame the issue, explain why we have to deal with it at all, and outline a number of basic possible directions we can take moving forward. It is not meant to present an argument, just be informational. Nor is it meant to be detailed, but general — something to orient people to the issue and provide basic background information for participating in more detailed discussions moving forward.
