Focused on the needs of high school and community college STEM educators, this workshop focuses on how measures of student progress can be made more consistent and useful for program evaluation purposes.
Participants will leave the workshop able to:
• identify key elements of a functional assessment plan.
• clarify the similarities and differences between course and program assessment.
• put learning outcomes to work by developing measurable performance criteria.
• develop scoring rubrics to support the evaluation of student learning.
• understand the pros and cons of various data collection methods.
• create clear and concise reports on assessment processes and results.
Gloria Rogers, the 2008 Fellow of the American Society of Engineering Education, will present. Gloria Rogers provides workshops, webinars, seminars, and institutes for the development of continuous quality improvement of educational programs and institutional effectiveness related to strategic planning. She has been an external evaluator for major STEM initiatives and has developed an interactive CD ROM, “Assessment Planning Flowchart” to aid programs in their program assessment plan development.
