Outcomes Plan and Schedules
The Outcomes Plan was approved by the Academic Senate on May 22, 2014. Some new requirements in the plan:
- Every department is to create a course assessment rotation plan.
- Not sure how to create your rotation plan? View these rotation plan examples courtesy of the Music Department and Chemistry Department.
- Use this rotation plan template (in Microsoft Excel) to develop a rotation plan for your department.
- Every department is to share the collected "summary of data" and create the "use of results" in a department meeting or at an SLO conversation, while keeping private the identity of the students and faculty in question.
- Faculty are asked to list their measureable objectives (MOs) and SLOs on their syllabi. Alternatively, they could direct students to slo.mtsac.edu for this information.
