  2. Analysis of Assessment Data Surveys Course Embedded Internship Appraisals Spring Discussion Constituents Students Faculty Advisory Board Fall Report results Fall Fall Curriculum Changes Fall Data Collection (3 methods)

  3. CS, IS, and IT • Three Student Learning Outcomes • Critical Thinking and Problem Solving (CT&PS) • Communication and Interpersonal Skills (C&IS) • Professional and Ethical Responsibilities (P&ER) • Three Assessment Methods • Surveys • Course embedded assessment • Internship appraisals

  4. 2006 – 2007 Closing the LoopRe: Student Reactions • For the first time in Fall 2006, students were given an opportunity to examine assessment results and respond. They became aware of the assessment process. Student feedback showed that they seriously considered the observations from last year’s report and had further insight into the curricular process. • Move from C++ to Alice/Java to be a “good move” and that “the higher withdrawal rate might shift from CpSc 140 to cpsc150”. • Some students “saw the ACM Code of Ethics as important for writing Efficient Code”. • Students questioned removing Assembly Language from Computer Organization (CPSC 370). Assessment data will have to be evaluated continually to address this. • Students expressed an interest to NOT “see the assessment thing in every computer science course”.

  5. Assessment Results • The following slides contain data from: • Student surveys • Internship Appraisals • Course Embedded Assessment • Summary Data is provided for each major for Spring 2007 and Fall 2007 • GIVE US YOUR THOUGHTS!
