STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES: Where we’re at • 85% of our Courses have at least one SLO written (@88% if you take away those courses that are still on the books, but haven’t been taught for many years) • ACCJC/WASC was impressed by how much we had accomplished since their October 2007 visit, BUT… • We still have a LOT to do!
STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES: Agenda for Flex Week • Finish Writing SLOs for each Course • Make sure each course has at least ONE SLO written for it • We need to be at 100% by MONDAY!!! • Begin writing additional SLOs for courses that have just one SLO– this can take place over the course of the semester

While I will lecture for some period of time at almost every meeting, each student will be responsible for participating in the accompanying discussion section. Our major goals for the semester are not only to become familiar with the American story and the many facets and quirks of American history, but also to utilize a variety of primary sources in interpreting and analyzing the American story, and to learn to think critically about the analyses and interpretations of other historians (secondary sources). • In particular, each student will be able to do the following upon completion of this course: • Analyze and synthesize Modern Americanhistorical sources to formulate a historical thesis. • Explain relationships between the causes of historical events in Modern America and their effects. • Apply the lessons of historical events in Modern Americato the present. • Describe historical actors and events in Modern Americaand explain their significance in historical and historiographical context.
