Assessment Training Prior to Reporting
 Weigh pig, feed pig, weigh pig
 Training has to involve all of us, not just Institutional Assessment
 Possible strategies for training:
 ARC chair email units to be reviewed with guidelines, due dates, etc., reminder of Assessment
Assist
 ARC chairs arrange separate training sessions
 Units that received all yes on their review work with the units that did not

Reporting Actions Taken and Results for
2015-2016
Original Outcomes
New Outcomes
• Actions Taken:
• Report the actions you took to improve
the outcome (curricular/pedagogical
for educational programs)
• Should be based on the actions
planned from the previous year’s
report
• Results:
• Report results from each Means of
Assessment
• Actions Taken:
• Report what you are doing to address
the outcome
• Won’t have improvement yet or be
based on the actions planned from the
previous year’s report.
• Results:
• May just have that year of results to
report
Reporting on a 5 Year Cycle
Reporting
• Actions Taken: Best practice would be to summarize all Actions Taken
(curricular/pedagogical for educational programs)
• Results: Best practice would be to keep results on non-reporting years and then
include them at reporting time
• Analysis of Results: Summarize the relationship between Actions Taken and
Results (improve, not improve or no impact); identify area of improvement or
reinforcement
• Action Plan: Develop a plan to address the area for improvement or
reinforcement
