On June 11th OUE held its first “Assessment Day.” Units assembled teams of staff and students to establish their assessment plans for the coming 2018-2019 academic year, work on developing surveys or other instruments, or plan and develop new outcomes.
Additionally, we had a great team of on-campus consultants who volunteered their time to help each team... Our consultants consisted of Sandi Bramblett (Institutional Research & Enterprise Data Management), Casey Chaviano (OVPUE), Nick Chaviano (Enterprise Data Management), Loraine Phillips (Academic Effectiveness), Carol Thurman (SLS), and B Woods (Student Life). Teams worked in collaboration with our consultants, who rotated teams each hour. Following these consultations, each team gave a brief presentation outlining their progress for the day and had time to receive feedback or questions from the other teams. By the end of the day, participants were able to develop new outcomes, write focus group questions, design new surveys, and discuss ideas for new and innovative measures. This event will help our units head into their 2018-2019 assessment plans prepared with new ideas for continuous improvement.
