The Provost's Advisory Committee for General Education Assessment was formed to oversee aspects of the implementation and continuous review of OU's General Education Assessment Plan. These include:
Reviewing assessment information in syllabi to ensure that:
The course addresses at least one of the newly articulated general education SLOs.
The course addresses at least three performance indicators in each general education SLOs.
Assessment strategies are clearly described for each performance indicator.
Rubrics used to evaluate the quality of student learning are systematically aligned with performance indicators and the performance scales.
Monitoring, as needed, aspects of the university-wide general education assessment process and schedule. This will include:
Identifying courses to be included in the GE assessment schedule.
Recommending deletion of courses from the GE assessment schedule.
Making changes, as needed, to the GE assessment schedule to ensure that each SLO is assessed.
Reviewing reports of student performance as well as information on the use of assessment results. This will lead to preparation of:
Recommendations about use of assessment results for continuous improvement.
Feedback regarding GE assessment to faculty members.
Reports of student performance for both institutional and accreditation needs.
