To a Faculty Workshare and Lunch on Wednesday, Feb. 27, on

Results into Action: How to Use Assessment Findings

Imagine this: Half of your students score below expectations on basic knowledge in your field. What do you do next?

Or this: 100% of your students have scores deemed “good” or “excellent” on a national test of communication skills. How do you spread the word of their success?

This workshare will consider how to move from results to action such as:

·
Using results to enhance the curriculum.
· Engaging faculty colleagues in discussions of student strengths and needs.
· Publicizing successful assessment results.

Please join the Committee on Learning Assessment (COLA) for lunch and an exchange of ideas!

When: Noon to 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb.
27


Where: McDowell Formal Lounge

Three faculty members will share how they have used assessment results, followed by Q-and-A and discussion.

For more information, please contact Kathy McAdams at mcadams@american.edu or at X6569.

Please RSVP by Feb. 25 to aulearning@american.edu.
