GE Assessment Plan & Schedule
One GE outcome is identified each term to assess. All faculty teaching a course with the outcome to be assessed come together to engage in discussion about the extent to which the outcome is attained in their classes. Outcomes are evaluated using a common three-point scale.
Prior to new GE Outcomes, assessment was computed with the participation of a random sample of instructors. Click on an outcome to view the assessment report.
