College of Business Outcomes Assessment Model
In 2004, a task force evaluated the College’s outcomes assessment
efforts, and established the following assessment model/cycle for revitalizing
and improving the College’s outcomes assessment program.
A direct result of the task force’s efforts
was an evaluation and revision of all existing College and departmental outcomes
and to begin to identify methods that could be used to directly measure
learning. Another direct result of the task force was the faculty decision to
establish an outcomes assessment committee, which is charged with the
responsibility to oversee college and departmental assessment processes; to aid
in the on-going development of direct outcomes assessment measures; to
consolidate, evaluate, and monitor all assessment data within the College; to
conduct assessment of college-wide outcomes; to communicate assessment
information with curriculum committee, faculty, and administration; and to
log/monitor actions taken by faculty in response to outcomes assessment.
