I.  Complete the table below:

Program Goal
Indicate one program goal assessed in Spring 2017 / Program-level Student Learning Outcome (PSLO)
Based on the selected goal, list two-three program-level student learning outcomes assessed in Spring 2017. / Measures
Identify at least one direct measure used to assess the stated learning outcomes. Use of indirect measure in addition to direct measure is optional; however, direct measure is required. / Expected Level of Student Achievement
Indicate the expected level of achievement, standard/target for each outcome
Goal #2: Students will demonstrate competence in planning effective health education programs / 1.  Clear Healthy People 2020 topic linked by a clear rationale / ·  Direct: 10 page proposal
·  Indirect: / Mean Score of 3.0
2.  Provide evidence from 8 sources and is theory based. / ·  Direct:10 page proposal
·  Indirect: / Mean score of 3.0
3.  Resources needed for program are all inclusive. 4. Evaluation tools are well described and valid. / ·  Direct:10 page proposal
·  Indirect: / Mean score of 3.0
Mean score of 3.0

II.  Data Collection and Evaluation

For each outcome listed above, describe the source of data collection (course/section), sample size (number of students sampled) and when the data was collected and evaluated, i.e. what tools or instruments were used. Include information regarding number of personnel involved in evaluating the data and interpreting the results.

1.  PSLO / HE 331 Program Planning Sect: ? sample size = 30 random, Collected Fall 2016, One faculty member needed to evaluate the data and interpret the results.
2.  PSLO / HE 331 Program Planning, Sect: ? sample size = 30 random, Collected Fall 2016, One faculty involved in evaluating the data and interpreting the results.
3.  PSLO / HE 331 Program Planning, Sect ?, sample size = 30 random, Collected Fall 2016, One faculty member needed to evaluate the data and interpret the results.


III.  Results & Analysis

Indicate what the results were for each outcome (use space as necessary). Include a table/chart/snapshot of summative data with analysis at the program level. Include interpretation of the results in narrative form. Provide comparative analysis of expected level of student achievement with actual assessment results.

1.  PSLO: Clarity Topic: Target Mean score of 3.0 was exceeded with an achieved mean score of 3.5. Although 52% of the sample scored a 4 (Excellent), 3 students scored below a “3” (Good).

2.  PSLO: Evidence: Target Mean score of 3.0 was exceeded with an achieved mean score of 3.5. Although 55% of the sample scored a “4” (Excellent), 3 students scored below a “3” (Good

3.  PSLO: Resources: Target mean score of 3.0 was exceeded with an achieved mean score of 3.5. In this case,48% of the sample scored a “4” (Excellent), which is a bit lower than the others. However, none of the sample scored below a “3” (Good).

4. Target mean score of 3.0 was exceeded with an achieved mean score of 3.4.

IV.  Action

Based on the results, define what changes (if any) are recommended for each outcome.

Program level student learning outcomes
(PSLO) / Changes Needed
(Click on choose an item drop-down menu below to make your selection of “yes” or “no”).
If the selected choice is yes, proceed to the next column, if no; skip to the section marked with asterisk* below the table. / If yes:
Specify the type of change(s) recommended and then explain the reason of this recommendation.
PSLO#1
Clear topic linked by clear rationale / Yes / Curriculum (add, delete, modify course or content) explain
This can be improved by providing feedback on “Topic Clarity” issues during the semester in the form of quizzes as well as vocal feedback during class.
PSLO#2
Evidence from 8 sources and theory based / Yes / Choose an item.

This can be improved by providing feedback on “Evidence” issues during the semester in the form of quizzes as well as vocal feedback during class.
PSLO#3 Resources / Yes / Choose an item.
To raise the number of “Highly Competent” (4) students, all materials relating to “Resources” can be reinforced with quizzes and drafts.

V.  Summary:

(See the example below)

Goal / Outcomes Assessed / Measure, Course sample size / Data evaluation tool & expected achievement level / Results / Interpretation of results / Actions (recommendations)
Students will demonstrate competence in planning effective health education programs / 1.  Students will be able to identify a Healthy People 2020 topic linked by a clear rationale. / Final project from capstone course HE 331 with 30 samples from one section (A) of Fall 2016 offerings. / Rubrics. 70% of students will exhibit satisfactory and/or highly satisfactory performance. / 90% of students had satisfactory/highly satisfactory performance. / Students exceeded expectation, although some students lacked basic knowledge and meaning of what was expected. / Review the content in HE 331 and the pre-requisite courses; Increasing the lesson times of such topic and/or restructuring the syllabi may improve results of this SLO.
2.  Students will be able to provide evidence from 8 sources and is theory based. / Final project from capstone course HE 331 with 30 samples from one section (A) of Fall 2016 offerings / Rubrics. 70% of students will exhibit satisfactory and/or highly satisfactory performance / 90% of students had satisfactory/highly satisfactory performance / Students exceeded expectation, although some students lacked basic knowledge and meaning of what was expected. / Review the content in HE 331 and the pre-requisite courses; Increasing the lesson times of such topic and/or restructuring the syllabi may improve results of this SLO.
3.  Students will be able to identify resources needed for program that are all inclusive / Final project from capstone course HE 331 with 30 samples from one section (A) of Fall 2016 / Rubrics. 70% of students will exhibit satisfactory and/or highly satisfactory performance / 97% of students had satisfactory/highly satisfactory performance / Students exceeded expectation, although one student lacked basic knowledge and meaning of what was expected. / No changes deemed necessary.
