3 Outcomes Assessment C. Has your outcomes assessment plan been submitted to COSMA? Yes -- With this report No. If no, when will the plan be submitted to COSMA? D. Is the original or revised outcomes assessment plan you submitted to COSMA still current or have you made changes? The outcomes assessment plan we submitted is still current. Changes have been made and the revised plan is attached. We have made changes and the revised plan will be sent to the COSMA by: (See OEG 7 explanation) 12/2016 E. Complete the outcome assessment matrix form (Exhibit A) and include it with this annual report to COSMA. Remember that your outcomes assessment plan needs to include two or more direct and two or more indirect measures of student learning. These measures are most often used at the program level. Examples of both direct and indirect student learning measures are shown on page 5. You will need to insert your own direct and indirect student learning measures when completing Exhibit A. The examples provided in the mock-up on page 5 are commonly used assessment measures, but there are other choices. On the bottom of Exhibit A, space is provided to show changes and improvements you plan to make as a result of your assessment activity. Programmatic Information F. Identify any significant changes that have taken place in your sport management degree programs during the reporting period. 1. Did you terminate any degree programs during the reporting year? No Yes. If yes, please identify terminated programs. 2. Were changes made in any of your sport management majors, concentrations, or emphases? No Yes. If yes, please identify changes. 3. Were any new degree programs in sport management established during the academic year? No (skip to item G below) Yes. If yes, please identify the new degree programs on a separate sheet; answer item F-4 below. 4. Was approval of your regional accrediting body required for any of these programs? No 3

4 Yes. If yes, please attach an electronic copy of the material you sent to your regional accrediting body and identify the accrediting body you must obtain approval from. Administrative Changes G. Identify any administrative changes that directly affect your academic unit/sport management program. Such changes would include your sport management unit s primary representative to COSMA, your designated alternate to COSMA, your institution s president and academic vice president, and the head of your academic unit/sport management program (if different from the primary representative to the COSMA). If the incumbent in any of these administrative positions has changed, include the new incumbent s name, his or her title, telephone number, and address. None Other Issues H. Briefly comment on other issues pertaining to your academic unit/sport management program you would like to share with COSMA (e.g., new partnerships, innovations, etc). Program changes will occur for the academic year. Based on feedback from students and emerging trends in sport, the below program / course changes will be implemented starting for fall All sport management course prefix were changed from MGMT / BUSN to SPMG to more clearly identify sport courses to students. Sport legal and sport marketing classes maintained their respective prefixes. 2. SPMG 275 Athletic Leadership and Coaching course was added. 3. SPMG 370 Sport Analytics course was added. 4. SPMG 385 Special Topics in Sport / BUSN 381 Study Abroad requirements were added. 5. MGMT 223 Sport in Society was deleted to make room for above courses. 6. MGMT 211 Management Foundations and MGMT 214 Sport Management Foundations were combined to create SPMG 211 Sport Management Foundations. This reduced significant overlap in course content. 7. MKTG 211 Marketing Foundations and MKTG 215 Sport Marketing were combined to create MKTG 210 Sport Marketing. This reduced significant overlap in course content. 8. LEGL 210 Business Law Foundations was folded into LEGL 334 Legal Aspects of Sport Management. This reduced significant overlap in course content. 9. Students are now required to take SPMG 290 Sport Internship and SPMG 390 Sport Internship separately. In prior years students were able to take six credits of internship at once and often waited until the end of their program. By requiring a sophomore level internship and a junior level, internship students are much more likely to take internships earlier and at varying organizations. 10. The above changes increase open elective credit from six to nine. 11. The program learning outcomes were simplified and streamlined resulting in a better approach to assessment Learning Outcomes The graduate will demonstrate the ability to communicate effectively to appropriate sport management audience and inform, explain, and persuade via verbal presentations and written assignments, using proper sport management language and terminology. The graduate will demonstrate knowledge of leadership functions, theories and practices in 4

5 various sports organizational situations through research, self-assessment and case assignments. The graduate will apply sport management knowledge skills and abilities to identify problems or opportunities, set appropriate goals, generate viable alternatives, implement and monitor outcomes using qualitative and quantitative tools and techniques to achieve sports organization objectives. The graduate will know and understand the laws and requirements of sport management governing bodies and be able to use best practices and ethics to achieve compliance with those governing bodies Learning Outcomes The graduate will evaluate the laws and requirements of sport management governing bodies to develop compliant policies. The graduate will analyze sport management problems and opportunities to inform decision making. The graduate will apply marketing concepts to the sport industry.

9 **Explanation of course action for intended outcomes not realized: OEG 3: One percentage point short of benchmark. We will monitor and respond if trend is downward. OEG 4: We implemented a comprehensive student satisfaction survey in April (2016) specific to Sport Management majors to determine areas where further analysis is necessary. The survey results will be analyzed in September and actions will be identified by December OEG 6: Two percentage points short of benchmark. Based on how close we are to goal, we will monitor and act if negative trends develop. OEG 7: The university captures overall graduation rates as a university and retention rates for students within each major. Retention rates are used as a proxy for graduation rates by major since there is 6 ½ year delay in meaningful data (from 2009 cohort year) and the fact that students changing majors causes inaccuracies and misleading results. Therefore this OEG has been deleted. We will update assessment plan with other planned SLO s changes this fall. OEG 8: The percentage of students enrolled full time within the major (12 credits or more per semester) is 74%. The remaining 26% of students are part time and enrolled in less than 12 credits per semester. Our metrics reflect a full time student population. Using this as an anchor, the benchmark was missed by 1 %. We will monitor trends in this area and make modifications to plans as needed. Davenport has started two male only sports in the last two years (wrestling in 2014 and football in 2015) resulting in changes to our male to female ratios of sport management students. We knew this would be the case so we intentionally set goals lower in this category. We expect this percentage to further decrease as those programs increase student athlete roster size. Notes: 1) Provide all explanations of this table that follows. 2) If you are using different operational outcomes measures for different degree programs, please replicate this form, using one form for each program that has different measures. 3) If different programs use the same measures, only one copy of this form is needed. 9
