Assessing Course Outcomes: It Doesn't Have to Be Difficult!
Hammons, James O.; Hui, Mary Margaret; Keogh, Rochelle
Journal of Faculty Development, v30 n3 p65-67 Fall 2016
As the title suggests, this article offers the concept that assessing course outcomes does not have to be difficult. The authors believe that some adaptation of the process they have described in this article should provide students with an opportunity to provide meaningful feedback about what the course covered and what was required of them. The assessment also assists faculty in identifying areas where they need to rethink what they are doing and how they are presenting it. The results also provide a much needed supplement to student ratings.
