General Education Course Assessment Reporting

DEADLINE:   Annual Course Assessment Reports for each Gen Ed Course are due November 1, 2020.  Please file one report per course number.

  • Departments are asked to assess relevant Learning Outcomes according to the instruments described in their approved assessment plans, and to the cycle put forth in those plans.
  • Departments are asked to retain indefinitely all instruments used in the assessment process, as the plan calls for continual detailed reviews of the process over time.
  • Use of course grades as assessment indicators is not sufficient in this context.

 

How to File a Gen Ed Assessment Report:

Follow the Instructions below to access the General Education Assessment Reporting Form:

  1. Log in to BengalWeb
  2. Select Academics
  3. Click on the “General Education Assessment Reporting for use by Departments”  link in the Institutional Research channel. The form will open in a new window.
  4. File a separate assessment report for each general education course, or for each lecture/lab combination (e.g. BIOL 1101/1101L.
  5. Courses in a sequence (e.g. SPAN 1101-1102) are separate courses so are assessed and reported individually.
