  2. Methods • Looked at Instructional Objectives in course outlines

  3. Results • SLOs for all courses • SLOs for all programs

  4. Results • SLOs for all courses • SLOs for all programs • www.smccd.edu/accounts/skybio

  5. Programs • General Education (100s) • Majors (215, 230) • Allied Health Sciences (240, 250, 260) • Biotechnology (400s) • Honors (675)

  6. BIOL 101

  7. BIOL 101 Students • 4 semester units • 3 lecture hr/wk • 3 lab hr/wk

  8. BIOL 101 Students • 72% plan to transfer • 22% BUS majors • 20% undecided • 37 college units • Range: 0-120

  9. BIOL 101 • Mission: To provide students with the knowledge, experiences, & skills needed to make decisions regarding personal and environmental health.

  10. Definitions • Evaluation • to make a conclusion about student learning • Assessment • is ongoing. • To continually evaluate student learning against outcomes to improve programs. • To reflect on what we do for our students and what we should do.

  14. SLOAC Methods • Direct: • Require students to demonstrate their knowledge, skills and/or abilities. • Indirect: • Students reflect on their learning rather than demonstrate it.

  15. SLO Assessment Plan

  16. Criteria • Are all students expected to achieve a certain proficiency level for an outcome?  • Would the program be satisfied if only a certain percentage of students achieve a certain level of proficiency?  • What should this percentage and level be?  • Consider the “criterion point” at which the program would want to initiate curriculum changes. M. Zieky and M. Perie. A Primer on Setting Cut Scores on Tests of Educational Achievement. Educational Testing Service, 2006. http://www.ets.org

  17. The criteria are • “…subjective; it is important notto assume that criteria values accurately reflect student performance.” C. Horn et al. Cut Scores: Results May Vary. NBETPP Monographs 1(1). eScholarship@BC, 2000.
