2011-2012 NCE Program Assessment Report Template 4/12 1
2011-2012
NCE Annual Program Assessment Information, Template and Rubric
Purpose: The purpose of annual assessment reporting by programs is to demonstrate how we are monitoring candidate learning in order to demonstrate the extent to which candidates are achieving the goals that we have set for them. Program annual assessment reports provide information that allows faculty to make decisions about candidate learning needs and our own pedagogical effectiveness in order to be able to make appropriate changes. As per its constitutional charge, the NCE Assessment Council’s role in reviewing NCE program assessment reports is to provide feedback and support to programs on their assessment processes and to encourage continuous improvement in moving their candidates and programs forward. Directions: This document includes the 2011-12 Annual NCE program assessment template and rubric that NCE programs will use in completing this year’s report. NCE Program Assessment Report Template (2011-2012): Although the same overall format is used as in previous year’s reports, the language and directions of the template have been revised to provide more detail to better assist you in including comprehensive information and data related to your candidates and your program. It is recommended that you use the template as it is designed as the framework for writing your report. NCE 2011-2012 Rubric for Reviewing Program Assessment Reports: The rubric is used by NCE Assessment Council reviewers in reviewing annual assessment reports as the means for providing written feedback to programs. It is highly recommended that programs use the rubric while writing annual assessment reports as a guide for incorporating an appropriate amount and level of detail and completeness so that outside reviewers can fully understand the program and its assessment system. In addition to revisions to the language of this year’s rubric as a means to ensure a more direct alignment to the report template, there is one new additional category that provides feedback on the overall organization and writing of the report. You will find it as the last component of the rubric – Report Writing and Organization. Due Date: Program assessment reports must be completed and emailed as a .doc or (.docx) file to Daniel Sloyan ([email protected]) no later than June 30, 2012 to assist in our NCATE visit that is scheduled for early fall 2012. Need Further Assistance? If you have questions regarding the process, the template or accompanying rubric, please contact your department’s NCE Assessment Council representative or the co-chairs of the Council for assistance.
