  3. Why SLO/SSLO/AUO Process? • Culture of inquiry • Accreditation by ACCJC • Stakeholders demand assessment

  4. Program/Certificate/Degree Level Outcomes PLOs Institutional Outcomes Level - ICCs Course Outcomes SLOs/SSLOs/AUOs At De Anza College we have chosen to write the course student learning outcome statements first.

  5. Course Level Outcomes Program Level Outcomes Mapping Outcomes to ICCs Program Review Instructional Student Learning Outcome Process

  6. The Steps for Faculty Step 1 • Write the SLOs (Student Learning Outcomes) for each course. This is a process to be completed in dialogue with your teaching peers: at department meetings, during the SLO Convocation Day held Spring quarter, and/or during ad hoc mini-meetings throughout the year.In addition, each certificate, degree, and/or program needs to have program level outcomes. These are often based on the SLOs for individual courses within the program. The PLOs will be mapped to the College’s institutional core competencies and/or strategic outcomes.

  7. The Steps for Faculty Step 2 • Decide on the method or methods of assessment or consider assessment(s) that you already do and see if they apply. The instrument of assessment is your choice. This assessment may be constructed by individual faculty member teaching the course or it may be an assessment created by a group of faculty.

  8. The Steps for Faculty Step 3 • Conduct the assessments on one or several sections of the course. (This data collection might span several quarters.)

  9. The Steps for Faculty Step 4 • Summarize findings. During the first cycle, your findings will allow you to set a target or benchmark to describe student success in that area.

  10. The Steps for Faculty Step 5 • Close the loop by re-assessing the course once the enhancements are in place. Once again reflect on results of assessment once further enhancements take place.
