  6. ASSESSING SLOS “The purpose of assessment is to improve learning” (Angelo, 2000). “Assessment is a dynamic pedagogy that extends, expands, enhances, and strengthens learning” (Driscoll, 2001). ACCJC defines assessment as: the systematic collection, review, and use of information about educational programs undertaken for the purpose of improving student learning and development.
