Abstract:

Assessment of Institutional Measures (AIM) for Improved Student Learning Using Technology will be our project. Continuation of this project into a second year will provide assessment data that can be utilized to improve student learning outcomes.

Goals:

The learning goals of the project are to continue to:

  • Develop and implement a plan for faculty to embed teaching/learning strategies throughout the curriculum using technology to enhance student understanding of the assessment process.
  • Complete additional pilot projects of the institutional assessment process for the Success Skills using artifacts from the Electronic Portfolio Work Centers.
  • Provide a series of presentations to various faculty groups sharing what Hocking College is doing regarding assessment. The presentation will emphasize and clearly articulate expectations for assessment at the program-level, and institutional-level. Those attending the session should learn the importance of ensuring that assessment is efficient, effective, and purposeful, rather than just a collection of information and data.
  • Provide assessment information to all stakeholders through further development and updates to the Assessment Center Website.
  • Support professional development opportunities and dialogue that will prepare learning community members for increased institutional assessment efforts and use of technology to enhance learning.
Resources Created: Shared Statewide

Learning Community members will share what we have learned with Hocking College faculty and students, Ohio Learning Network learning communities and affiliates. We will also share our work with other interested colleges and universities.
