Student Learning Outcomes Assessment

About:

The purpose of the Student Learning Outcome Assessm​ent Committee (SLOAC) is to oversee and guide the college process for writing/incorporating SLOs and assessment across the curriculum and programs. The committee shapes the college's approach to assessment by providing a common assessment language through SLO Assessment Plans and the standardized assessment reporting templates.  The committee strives to support a campus culture of assessment by encouraging assessment dialogue and sharing best practices to improve student learning and integrate results into college planning.

Specifically, this committee will:

  • Provide guidance in identifying appropriate assessment measures for SLOs
  • Provide structure for mapping of outcomes (course, program, institution) and documentation of assessment results
  • Facilitate staff development on SLO assessment and reporting
  • Promote campus assessment dialogue through division/departments and campus activities
  • Provide campus-wide progress reports on assessment activities

  • Academic Senate

    • Championing SLO related initiatives/activities- reporting back to divisions, and linking assessment work to improvement
