Responsibility:
Departments/Colleges, CDD, Full-time faculty
Articulate program expectations in the form of program
competencies
Collect print-form (hard copy) student artifacts
Report results of analysis and interpretation to department
chair/Dean, UAC, and OA&IR
Identify relevant course objectives and map them to program
competencies
Strip print-form artifacts of identifiers and code them
to preserve aggregate demographics
Using results of analysis phase, formulate evidence-driven
action plan(s) to intervene and improve the course.
Identify student work products within the program that
will measure achievement of program competencies
Draw a random sample of electronic-form student artifacts
from the shared drive, or request a representative sample
of e-form student artifacts from the OA&IR (stripped,
coded, and randomly selected)
Report Assessment Action Plan(s) to department chair/Dean,
UAC, and OA&IR
Identify/formulate program rubrics for assessment of student
achievement of program competencies
Strip e-form artifacts of identifiers and code them, if
they were not obtained through the OA&IR
Implement the action plan(s)
Identify formative and summative assessment points (courses)
Working in teams of at least 3, score artifacts against
the appropriate rubric
Assess results of the Action Plan(s): Did the intervention
result in improved student learning? (This step often requires
repeating the collection and analysis process.)
Develop program competencies master matrix
Submit resulting raw data to the OA&IR for statistical
processing
Report results of Action Plan assessment to department
chair/Dean, UAC, and OA&IR
Identify gaps and repetition
Disseminate OA&IR data reports to primary constituents
for analysis and interpretation (i.e., turn data into evidence)
Report results of analysis and interpretation to department
chair/Dean, UAC, and OA&IR
Formulate logistical plans for collection and analysis
of data
Formulate collection and analysis cycle and timeline

Articulate University expectations for baccalaureate degrees
in the form of General Education Core Skills
Collect print-form (hard copy) student artifacts
UAC and OA&IR report results of analysis and interpretation
of results to Provost/CAO, Academic Affairs Committee,
Deans/department chairs, Full-time faculty
Identify types of student work products that are required
across the curriculum and across the educational experience,
that can be used to measure achievement of the General
Education Core Skills (e.g., papers, projects)
Strip print-form artifacts of identifiers and code them
to preserve aggregate demographics
Using results of analysis phase, formulate evidence-driven
action plan(s) to intervene and improve the course.
Identify/formulate program rubrics for assessment of student
achievement of the General Education Core Skills
OA&IR draws a random sample of electronic-form student
artifacts (stripped, coded, and randomly selected)
Identify cohort of students from whom artifacts will be
randomly selected to assess achievement of the Core Skills
for that year (outlined in the University Assessment Plan)
OA&IR strips e-form artifacts of identifiers and codes
them
Implement the action plan(s)
Identify the Core Skills to be assessed (outlined in the
University Assessment Plan)
Working in teams of at least 3, score artifacts against
the appropriate rubric
Assess results of the Action Plan(s): Did the intervention
result in improved student learning? (This step often requires
repeating the collection and analysis process.)
Formulate logistical plans for collection and analysis
of data (the general outline is in the University Assessment
Plan)
Submit resulting raw data to the OA&IR for statistical
processing
Report results of Action Plan assessment to UAC, OA&IR,
Provost/CAO, AAC, Deans
Disseminate OA&IR data reports to primary constituents
for analysis and interpretation (i.e., turn data into evidence)
Report results of analysis and interpretation to campus
community
