8 Overview of course-embedded assessment Faculty craft their own assignments for their courses A random sample of core courses that emphasize the ULO for that year Assignments specifically designed to address the ULO of interest will be uploaded to Blackboard and then entered into the assessment artifact database. (All assignments are rendered anonymous for assessment purposes.) Collect student artifacts in FYE, writing extension courses and capstone courses Ask instructors for the writing assignment These assignment files are then transferred into Aqua for our year-end Assessment Palooza.

38 What did the results of the Assessment Palooza reveal? Quantitative Analysis of Effective Writing Data
39 Sample Demographics (N=242 papers) Student authors: 66% Female (160) 17% Students of Color (42) Class distribution: FY 28% (68) SO 18% (44) JR 18% (44) SR 36% (86) 15% First-generation college students (37)
40 Writing Outcomes Mean Ratings Analysis (All differences are statistically significant, p<.001)
41 Interesting patterns in the data (Keep in mind that all data are cross-sectional) Across the board, Seniors write better than first-year students. Gains in all 4 aspects of writing tend to be linear. Interestingly, there is a statistically-significant difference between JRs and SRs on all aspects of writing but Sources & Evidence. (There is no significant difference between JRs and SRs on that scale.) On average, female students are better writers than male students. Female students writing development tends to be linear. Male students initially show slow/no growth, then dramatic gains in JR and SR years. By senior year, writing skills of female and male students are comparable.
