How would you assess these SLOs? Graduates are able to critique a brief draft essay, pointing out the grammatical, spelling, and punctuation errors and offer appropriate suggestions to correct identified deficiencies In a “capstone course” during the final semester prior to graduation; required to critique a supplied essay containing predetermined errors; evaluated by a 3-person faculty panel (criteria: appropriate suggestions to remediate 90% of the errors) Senior undergraduate psychology majors perform above the national average on the GRE Psychology Subject Test GRE Psychology Subject Test; completed during the senior year, required for graduation. Compare average GRE Psychology Subject Test scores with average scores of all examinees nationwide

Assessment Methods

Assessment methods include both direct and indirect approaches. . . We’ll define these terms in a few minutes.

First, let’s explore a few criteria or considerations to keep in mind as you select appropriate assessment methods...

Qualitative Versus Quantitative Methods

Qualitative Versus Quantitative Methods

  • Qualitative assessment: collects data that does not lend itself to quantitative methods but rather to interpretive criteria; “data” or evidence are often representative words, pictures, descriptions, examples of artistic performance, etc.
  • Quantitative assessment: collects representative data that are numerical and lend themselves to numerical summary or statistical analysis
  • Programs are free to select assessment methods appropriate to their discipline or service.... choices must be valid and reliable
Valid and Reliable Methods

Valid and Reliable Methods

  • Valid : The method is appropriate to the academic discipline and measures what it is designed to measure
  • Reliable : The method yields consistent data each time it is used and persons using the method are consistent in implementing the method and interpreting the data
  • Basic Aim : “defensible methods”
Locus of Assessment

Locus of Assessment

  • Embedded assessment - “measurement” strategies included as part of the requirements within existing courses, internships, or other learning experiences– “double duty” assessment; e.g., “critical assignments”
  • Ancillary assessment - “measurement” strategies added on or in addition to requirements within existing courses, internships, or other learning experiences– “additional duty” assessment

  • Literature search by a professional librarian
  • Personal experience – yours or colleagues
When SELECTING ANY ASSESSMENT method, here are some questions to consider carefully:

When SELECTING ANY ASSESSMENT method, here are some questions to consider carefully:

  • Does it “fit” the SLO?
  • Did the faculty or student services staff select the method and are they willing to participate in its use?
  • Will all students in the program or provided service be included in the assessment (ideally, yes) or a sample of students (maybe)?
  • How much time is required to complete the assessment method? Determine how this affects faculty, staff, and students
When and where will the assessment be administered? Are there financial costs? Are program and/or university resources available? Is the method used at one point in time (cross-sectional method) or utilized with students over several points in time (longitudinal method)? Does the program faculty/staff have the skills and/or knowledge necessary to use the method and analyze the results? Most importantly... WHO is responsible to make certain the assessment is accomplished?

TIP Ideally…. as you write or rewrite SLOs keep in mind the question: “ What method(s) can I use to assess this SLO? ” Why is this tip potentially useful?

Direct Methods

Direct Methods

  • Direct assessment methods are “measurement” strategies that require students to actively demonstrate achievement levels related to institutional and program-specific learning outcomes
  • Direct assessment methods focus on collecting evidence on student learning or achievement directly from students using work they submit (assignment, exam, term paper, etc.) or by observing them as they demonstrate learned behaviors, attitudes, skills, or practice
Direct Methods: Examples

Direct Methods: Examples

  • Capstone or Senior-Level projects , papers, presentations, performances, portfolios, or research evaluated by faculty or external review teams... effective as assessment tools when the student work is evaluated in a standard manner, focusing on student achievement of program-level outcomes
  • Exams - locally developed comprehensive exams or entry-to-program exams, or national standardized exams, certification or licensure exams, or professional exams
  • Internship or Practicum - evaluations of student knowledge and skills from internship supervisors, faculty overseers, or from student participants themselves. This may include written evaluations from supervisors focused on specific knowledge or skills or evaluation of student final reports or presentations from internship experiences.
Direct Methods , continued

Direct Methods , continued

  • Portfolios (hard-copy or web-based) - reviewed by faculty members from the program, faculty members from outside the program, professionals, visiting scholars, or industrial boards
  • Professional Jurors or Evaluators to evaluate student projects, papers, portfolios, exhibits, performances, or recitals
  • Intercollegiate Competitions - useful for assessment when students are asked to demonstrate knowledge or skills related to the expected learning outcomes within appropriate programs
  • Course assessments - these are projects, assignments, or exam questions that directly link to program-level expected learning outcomes and are scored using established criteria; common assignments may be included in multiple sections taught by various professors (assuming prior agreement)
Direct Methods: Advantages Require students to actively demonstrate knowledge, attitudes, and/or skills  Provide data to directly measure expected outcomes  Demand less abstract interpretation Usually “easier” to administer Direct Methods are always our first choice; indirect methods support but cannot replace direct methods

Achievement Levels or Criteria

Achievement Levels or Criteria

  • Rarely does every student achieve all SLOs completely, 100%; nor can we expect this
  • What “level” of achievement is acceptable? Identified in the “OPlan”
  • Rubrics recognize varying achievement levels
  • Rubrics are a scoring method or technique appropriate to many assessment methods
A Rubric Example Outcome Novice Correctly analyzes research data Developing 1   Limits analysis to correct basic descriptive analysis. Proficient 2  Selects and executes correct basic statistical analyses Accomplished 3  Selects, articulates, and executes an inferential statistical analysis 4  Selects, articulates, and executes the statistical analysis suitable to the research question Excellent resource: Stevens, D.

Guidelines for Implementing  Imbedded, Direct Assessment

Guidelines for Implementing Imbedded, Direct Assessment

  • Link class assignments to both SLOs and course objectives
  • If multiple sections of the same course exist and the intent is to aggregate data across sections, ensure that the assessment is the same in all sections (same assignment and grading process)
  • Make certain faculty collaboration underpins assessment across multiple course sections
  • Tell students which assignment(s) is being used for SLO assessment as well as course assessment…Why?
Indirect Methods

Indirect Methods

  • Methods requiring the faculty and student life staff to infer actual student abilities, knowledge, and values rather than observing direct evidence of learning or achievement
  • Indirect assessment is gathering information through means other than looking at actual samples of student work... e.g., surveys, exit interviews, and focus groups
  • Indirect methods provide perceptions of students, faculty, or other people (often alumni or employers) who are interested the program, service, or institution
  • Indirect methods expand on or confirm what is discovered after first using direct methods
Indirect Methods, Continued Exit interviews and Student Surveys  - to provide meaningful assessment information, exit interviews and/or student surveys should focus on students’ perceived learning (knowledge, skills, abilities) as well as students’ satisfaction with their learning experiences; including such things as internships, participation in research, independent projects, numbers of papers written or oral presentations given, and familiarity with discipline tools

Advantages of Indirect Methods

Advantages of Indirect Methods

  • Relatively easy to administer
  • Provide clues about what could/should be assessed directly
  • Able to flesh out subjective areas direct assessments cannot capture
  • Particularly useful for ascertaining values and beliefs
  • Surveys can be given to many respondents at the same time
Indirect Methods Advantages, Continued

Indirect Methods Advantages, Continued

  • Surveys are useful for gathering information from alumni, employers, and graduate program representatives
  • Exit interviews and focus groups allow questioning students face-to-face; exploring and clarifying answers is done more easily
  • External reviewers can bring objectivity to assessment and answer questions the program or department wants answered or questions based on discipline-specific national standards
Disadvantages of Indirect Methods

Disadvantages of Indirect Methods

  • Indirect methods provide only impressions and opinions, not “hard” evidence on learning
  • Impressions and opinions may change over time and with additional experience
  • Respondents may tell you what they think you want to hear
  • Survey return rates are often low and, consequently, not representative
Indirect Methods Disadvantages, Continued

Indirect Methods Disadvantages, Continued

  • You cannot assume those who did not respond would responded in the same way as those who did respond
  • Exit interviews take considerable time to complete
  • Focus groups usually involve a limited number of respondents who are not representative
  • Unless the faculty agree upon the questions asked during exit interviews and focus groups, there may not be consistency in responses
Suggestions for Implementing  Indirect, Ancillary Assessment

Suggestions for Implementing Indirect, Ancillary Assessment

  • Use “purposeful samples” when it is not possible to include all students (which is always the first choice)
  • Offer incentives to participants
  • Anticipate low turn-out and therefore over-recruit
  • Plan carefully logistics and question design (i.e., surveys, interviews, focus groups)
  • Train group moderators and survey interviewers
Implementation Suggestions , Continued

Implementation Suggestions , Continued

  • Consider using web-based or telephone as well as face-to-face interviews or focus groups
  • Set time limits for focus groups and interviews
  • Develop and provide very careful, explicit directions
  • Be wary of FERPA regulations when using archival records
  • Only use archival records that are relevant to specific outcomes
Implementing Assessment in General

Implementing Assessment in General

  • Capitalize on what you are already doing
  • Integrate imbedded assessment as much as possible
  • Schedule ancillary assessment during regular class times or times when students are present
  • Make assessment a graduation requirement
  • Plan an “assessment day”
  • Seek to make assessment a routine activity within your curriculum or student services programs
REVIEW:  Assessment Strategy Combinations Depending on the specific SLO, there are four assessment strategies or frames: Imbedded, direct assessment Imbedded, indirect assessment Ancillary, direct assessment Ancillary, indirect assessment REMEMBER:   There is more than one way to assess any given SLO! It’s your choice as long as it is valid and reliable.
