    THE ASSESSMENT CYCLE

    Assessment Cycle

    At any level, assessment is a continuous cycle. Each cycle should lead to improvements over time.

    Collection of meaningful data and insightful analysis should lead to action. Interventions should be informed by the data and implemented before reassessment.

    Reflection on the process and outcome of assessment is essential to continuous improvement.

    EVIDENCE

    Assessment data for institutional learning outcomes is collected from a variety of direct and indirect measures ranging from juried assessment of common assignments, aligned program assessments, and student and alumni surveys.

    Institutional learning outcomes are assessed on a rotating basis. When an outcome is due for assessment, the University Assessment Committee and a taskforce of disciplinary experts review data from the prior assessment and engage in critical reflection of the results and recommended actions. The taskforce then designs and executes an assessment strategy, reflects on the new results and recommends action items.


    Beginning in the 2021-22 academic year, one of four university presentations from the Performance Indicator Review Committee (PIRC) has been dedicated to communicating university assessment.
