Assessment of Student Learning Planning In planning for assessment, identify which Program Learning Outcome and Institutional Learning Outcome you will be evaluating and the method you will be using to gather data about that outcome (see measures below) over the next 5-years. OUTCOMES & MEASURES IDENTIFICATION Identify the type of measurement instrument used to collect data and where/how this will be accomplished, i.e., which course. Indicate whether the measure is a direct or indirect measure of student learning. You must include at least one direct measure. Examples of common direct measures include tests, quizzes, projects w/rubrics, student performance w/ratings or rubric, and written assignment w/rubric. Common examples of indirect measures include: student surveys, faculty surveys, focus groups, advisory board minutes, and faculty discussions.
