  6. Actual Assessment Data

  7. Assessment Results: What Have the Data Told Us? • SLO assessment was favorable and benchmarks were met • One student did not meet the benchmark in HLS 422 (Individual Treatment Planning) • One student did not meet the benchmark in HLS 497/HLP 498 (Internship Seminar/Internship)

  8. Data-driven Decisions: How the Department Has or Plans to “Close the Loop” • Despite adequate performance on the SLO, the ASAP committee met to discuss the results • The student who was not successful in HLS 422 did not pass the course • A follow-up phone call was made to the internship site coordinator who worked with the student who under-performed on the artifact for HLS 497/HLP 498 since score did not align with narrative comments • It was indicated that the assessment may have been completed incorrectly • New evaluation was sent to the internship supervisor to complete (however, this data was not included in the Spring 2013 assessment report)

  9. What resources were used or have been requested to close the loop? • The only resources used to “close the loop” for Spring 2013 were faculty time and energy • No additional resources are requested at this time

  13. Actual Assessment Data

  14. Assessment ResultsWhat Have the Data Told Us? • The percentage of students meeting or exceeding the benchmark for the HLP 491 unit plan (56%) was well below the 90% SLO benchmark • Site supervisor evaluations (HLP 495-496) were generally favorable with 100% of students meeting or exceeding a mean of 3.0

  15. Data-driven DecisionsHow the Department Has or Plans to “Close the Loop” • HLE committee review of the Unit Plans assignment indicated that “use of technology” was a problematic area for students • This finding was shared with the HLP 491 instructor with the following suggestions: • Modification of unit plan instructions • Additional classroom time devoted to education technology integration within lessons • No actions were planned for the internship evaluations

  16. What resources were used or have been requested to close the loop? • Closing the loop for this Spring 2013 assessment involved time for the faculty to meet, review the data, revise the unit plan assignment, and explore additional educational technologies that could be brought into the classroom • No additional resource requests are planned at this time

  20. Actual Assessment Data

  21. Actual Assessment Data

  22. Assessment ResultsWhat Have the Data Told Us? • HLS 411 assessment indicated that: • On the team presentation, 100% of students met or exceeded the established benchmark • On the four exams, 79% of students met or exceeded expectations • Preceptor evaluations (HLS 496) were very favorable with 100% of students meeting or exceeding expectations

  23. Data-driven DecisionsHow the Department Has or Plans to “Close the Loop” • HLA faculty and the department chair met in May 2013 to review results • HLS 411 examinations: student performance will continue to be monitored to evaluate the true need for any future adjustments, such as questions modified for clarification, additional time spent on course content/instructional techniques, or utilizing other types of artifacts • HLS 496 Preceptor Evaluations will continue to be monitored • Assessment information will be shared with new HLA faculty

  24. What resources were used or have been requested to close the loop? • Closing the loop for this Spring 2013 assessment involved time for the faculty to meet, review the data, and revise the rubric. • No additional resource requests are planned at this time.

  27. How was the assessment accomplished? Student Work Assessed: • HLS 317 Intro to Public Health (2 sections) • n = 71 • Documentary Project • Scored with Rubric • HLS 317 Intro to Public Health (2 sections) • n = 71 • Set of 23 Exam Questions • % Answered Correctly

  28. Actual Assessment Data

  29. Assessment ResultsWhat Have the Data Told Us? • The overwhelming proportion of students exceeded expectations on the documentary project • Though the students (in groups) produced high quality results (and high scores per the given rubric), the rubric did not adequately differentiate between those who meet and those who exceeded expectations • In addition, there was little differentiation of individual efforts within each group

  30. Assessment ResultsWhat Have the Data Told Us? • A large percentage (31%) of students did not meet expectations on the exam question set artifact • Possible reasons for this outcome: • Students in this introductory core course are new to the program and not yet displaying competency in the question areas • Students did not read critically early on in the course • Recent shifts to more full-time faculty instruction of this course has possibly resulting in more rigorous questions

  31. Data-driven DecisionsHow the Department Has or Plans to “Close the Loop” • HLL faculty and the department chair met in May 2013 to review results • The documentary rubric will be modified to increase the use of peer reviews within the grading scheme • Exam question performance will continue to be monitored to evaluate the true need for any future adjustments

  32. What resources were used or have been requested to close the loop? • Closing the loop for this Spring 2013 assessment involved time for the faculty to meet, review the data, and revise the rubric • No additional resource requests are planned at this time

  38. Data-driven DecisionsHow the Department Has or Plans to “Close the Loop” • Graduate faculty and the department chair met in May 2013 to review results • Consequently, a contingency plan was developed and implemented to promote skill mastery. • To successfully address this issue in the future, it was recommended that the instructor revised his or her lesson plans to increase instructional time spent on the important themes of these projects.

  39. What resources were used or have been requested to close the loop? • Closing the loop for this Spring 2013 assessment involved time for the faculty to meet, review the data, revise the unit plan assignment, and explore the idea providing additional preparation time for the projects and to consider adding educational methodologies that could be brought into the classroom • No additional resource requests are planned at this time
