Effectiveness
The purpose of assessment is to systematically improve the quality of student learning, teaching, research, service, and processes at UM.
We accomplish this goal by:
- Identifying learning outcomes and administrative outcomes
- Developing assessment tools to assess the outcomes
- Then analyzing and using the data to make improvements in academic programs and administrative units
Evidence of assessment is necessary for number of audiences, including regional and program accrediting bodies and though assessment can happen at many levels (e.g., for courses or departments), we offer support for at the degree program and unit levels.
