Demands for quality at all levels of education are higher than they
have ever been. Making clear what students must learn is being
stressed by Federal and State governments and by professional and
national accreditation organizations. This book is designed to help
faculty and institutions of higher education meet these demands by
obtaining, managing, using, and reporting valid outcome attainment
measures at the course level; and mapping outcome attainment from
the course level to departmental, degree program, and institutional
levels, and beyond. It demonstrates how to communicate clearly what
students are supposed to know and be able to do; write assessments
that measure the expectations; and produce test scores that are
valid for their intended use and interpretation, so that valid
inferences can be made about students and programs. It is a
"how-to" manual that is rich with guidelines, model forms, and
examples that will lead the reader through the steps to "connect
the dots" from outcomes assessment to outcomes-based reporting.
This new edition incorporates several enhancements including
additional examples, tables, and figures that help clarify and
expand the three-level outcomes and assessment model. A new Chapter
9 introduces a census approach to obtaining outcome attainment
measures at the program and institutional levels and shows how to
link outcome values to outcome statements from outside sources such
as national and professional organizations. Chapter 9 concludes
with a discussion on obtaining and using outcome attainment values
at the student level with the aid of modern technologies.
