Purpose Statement For Academic Assessment At Lake Erie College
In support of the College's mission to empower students to "lead lives of personal significance and professional success as global citizens," academic program and co-curricular assessments serve to help us understand the efficacy of our learning environment and progress toward our program learning objectives. Lake Erie college views program-level assessment as a means of improving student learning at the course or program activity levels. 与此形成鲜明对比的是, the program review process serves as the opportunity to consider broader changes such as resource allocations, 一次性或持续投资, 以及程序操作的其他方面.
While the assessment of student learning can serve many functions at Lake Erie College, the below points are the primary areas of importance:
课程开发
指导改进和投资
告知教学策略的变化
突出项目优势
确保与学院的使命保持一致.
立法会的六个评估步骤如下:
