DE ANZA COLLEGE INSTRUCTIONAL PLANNING

1. DE ANZA COLLEGE INSTRUCTIONAL PLANNING INTEGRATING COURSE ASSESSMENT AND THE PROGRAM REVIEW PROCESS AT THE COURSE LEVEL

2. Instructional Assessment Groups (IAG) Two main groups • General Education: includes all departments, divisions, programs* that lend to transfer, A.A., A.S. degrees; and certificates. • Vocational: includes all departments/programs that lend to A.A., A.S. degrees and certificates with a vocational emphasis *Subgroups within each of these IAG’s may be defined by current program review groupings. i.e. Basic skills may be a “unique subgroup” within general education.

3. Premises • All courses will be assessed on a agreed upon timeline • Assessment of a course SLO may simultaneously represent assessment of the ICC’s. • An assessment cycle is completed when all SLO’s for a course are assessed.

4. Instructional Program SLOs • The “Program SLO’s” for the General Education Assessment Group are the ICCs. • The “Program SLO’s” for the Vocational groups are the ICCs and the outcomes expected from their respective outside agencies.

5. Instructional Planning for all IAG’s Groups will: • Create SLO’s • Assess course and program SLO’s • Evaluate findings (Reflect) • Implement changes in the classroom (Enhance) • Summarize findings and identify/request resource needs (Annual program review update)

6. Assessment cycle Key Year of assessment Course level assessment Program level assessment

7. 2010 to 2011 timeline W’10 S’10 F’10 W’11 S’11 COURSE ASSESSMENT R & E PROGRAM REVIEW UPDATE COURSE ASSESSMENT COURSE ASSESSMENT R & E PROGRAM REVIEW UPDATE 100% of all courses assessed Program Level Volunteers 5-10 courses per subgroup Program Level Volunteers 5-10 courses per subgroup R & E Senate committee Summarize all reports

8. TO DO’s to make the timeline work • March 1, 2010 Division Council approves final Program Review Update Document • Division Liaisons in place and trained by April 30, 2010 • Define Institutional Assessment groups end of Winter Quarter, 2010

9. 6-year Assessment Cycle 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Proposal one – Cabrillo model COURSE SLOAC COURSE SLOAC PROGRAM SLOAC PROGRAM SLOAC Program Review INSTRUCTIONAL PLAN Proposal two -- Themed Assessments ICC one ICC two ICC three Program Review ICC four ICC five INSTRUCTIONAL Plan

10. proposal one • Faculty concentrate their efforts in completing SLOAC for __ % of their courses for two years of the cycle. • Faculty concentrate their efforts in completing SLOAC for __% of their courses with emphasis on __ (all?) ICC’s that relate to a course • Faculty create a one page summary an instructional plan and program review.

11. Proposal two • Every year one ICC stands as a theme for the college. SLOACs for all courses that have an SLO that relate to the theme are conducted. • All departments who conduct Program reviews should plan to assess all of their course SLO’s during the five year cycle. • During a 5 year cycle all courses should have completed SLOAC’s for all courses.

12. Goals • Discuss program assessment plans by the end of Winter Quarter in the Academic Senate. • Invite interested persons to discuss “sub-groupings” within IAG’s. • Set standard assessment format for data analysis--I.e. survey monkey, catalyst, scantron
