What we are planning to work on:
Better coordination of the assessment process by setting aside time at the end of every Spring semester for a divisional meeting where assessment results could be discussed and entered into TracDat and a plan is developed for the next academic year. In addition, instructors could discuss solutions on how to improve student learning, as recommended by an instructor.
Recommendations for students:
No recommendations for students or improvement was available at the writing of this report.
