2 Program Student Learning Outcomes at CRC: Worksheets Program Roles and Functions Common Program Elements Listing Program s Alignment of Program Courses/Activities Assessment Measures Response Plan

3 Program Student Learning Outcomes: Program Roles and Functions Program: What roles does the program fill in a student s pathway to a college education? What functions define the learning experiences provided by the program? How does the program assist the student in gaining the outcomes developed for your college as a whole? What are the expectations of the places they will go from here? Think about the following, but don t limit yourself to these areas if others are more applicable to your program. General education Career preparation Transfer preparation College competencies Lifelong self-reliant learning Community service

4 Program Student Learning Outcomes: Common Program Elements Program: What courses and/or other activities are part of your program? What elements, themes, or processes are common to these activities? Consider the following (and other areas if appropriate): o Common content themes or ideas that reoccur in many parts of the program o Skills or abilities that are developed across the program as a student moves through it o Common evaluative processes that are used to assess student learning throughout the program o Overall expectations of student learning that run throughout the program

5 Program Student Learning Outcomes: Listing Program s Program: Writing the Student Learning Outcomes: What abilities are we helping the students learn in here that they will need to take with them when they go out there? What are the most important broadly-based goals that you have for your students? Consider: o The roles and functions of your program o The common program elements that you defined earlier o The expectations of the programs or jobs that your students will move into when they leave your college o The overall outcomes developed by your college

6 Program Student Learning Outcomes: Alignment of Program Courses/Activities Program: Alignment Grids: How do your courses or activities support your Program s? Are some skills developed as a student moves through the program? Can you indicate this by showing the outcome development as I (introductory) or A (advanced)? Are some abilities stressed more in certain activities than in others? Can you indicate this by showing the outcome as a M (major) or L (lesser) part of the activity? Course/activity: Narrative: You may wish to expand on the information in the grid with a narrative description of how the courses, especially methods of instruction and methods of evaluation, support Program s

7 Program Student Learning Outcomes: Assessment Measures Program: How will you know that your students have achieved the outcomes and objectives you have developed for your program? How do you measure their learning? What data will you collect that you don t now? What records will you keep? o Course success rates and grades within courses in the program o Products produced within courses (e.g. creative projects, papers, performances, etc.) o Persistence rates of students within the program (e.g. retention Fall to Spring) o Progress through course sequences o Transfer rates o Evaluation of capstone project or portfolios o Specific assessments built into end-of-program courses o Reports from employers o Pass rates on licensing or certification exams. o Follow up studies of students after transfer o Exit surveys or interviews of student near or at completion of the program o Analyses of student success based on direct observations of students by the faculty who teach those courses that occur near the end of a program. o Evaluations of students in internships or work experience courses related to the program. o Interviews or surveys of instructors, program coordinators, tutors, and others that work with students completing the program.

8 Program Student Learning Outcomes: Response Plan Program: What will you do with the information that you gather concerning student learning? How will you make meaningful changes if you find that students are not achieving a desired outcome?

9 College-wide Student Learning Expectations and Outcomes Academic Senate Draft April 29, 2004 Outcomes Response Plan Assessment

10 Overarching goal: Students will experience a rich and inclusive learning environment that assists them in developing habits of intellectual inquiry, a significant base of knowledge and skills, and a broad pluralistic perspective of the world. Expectations of the College We expect the college to provide the following experiences for students in order to assist them in achieving the college-wide student learning outcomes. The College will 1. Provide rigorous academic instruction, conducted by knowledgeable and highly competent staff, in a student-centered environment. 2. Provide a safe, caring, and respectful environment where the student may feel safe including a sense of feeling welcome on campus and in classes and an absence of perceived prejudice. 3. Provide clear policies with known consequences concerning student behavior and academic requirements. 4. Foster student motivation and engagement in the college in an atmosphere of high expectations. 5. Encourage students to develop habits of intellectual inquiry (e.g. reading for pleasure, involvement in the arts, etc.) 6.

We might evaluate our success at this based on: Data indicating student success following completion of their studies at CRC (workplace, transfer, etc.) Data concerning student progress and completion of programs. Data showing trends in the disproportionate success and persistence among different student groups and studies of the factors that increase student success. Rates of utilization of student services and participation in campus activities by different student groups. Results of the campus climate survey of staff and student equity survey. This might be supplemented by a new attitude/affective survey of CRC students (yet to be developed). Data from an updated Noel-Levitz survey Assessment of staff interests and needs with respect to culturally responsive programs and services, conflict resolution training, diversity training, social responsibility activities, etc. Success of faculty at acquiring resources needed for professional development related to college expectations Evaluation of the incentives available for staff to research and implement ways to engage students in dialog about issues important to the larger community beyond campus
