Instructions (See example on p. 2):

Enter in your program's Degree Learning Outcomes (DLO).

Select at least one DLO to assess every other year, ensuring that all of the program’s DLOs will be assessed within the 7-year Program Review timeline.

For each DLO, you should allow one year for planning and data collection (planning in Fall and data collection in Spring), one year for analyzing data and coming up with an action plan, and one year for implementing action items (following up to see whether the action plan is being implemented).

Using your update-to-date curriculum map, identify at least one course that aligns with the DLO to use for assessment.

Identify a means of assessment - an assignment or exam or common rubric for use in assessing the DLO."

Note: All DLOs must be assessed within the 7-year cycle, so for some divisions this might mean multiple DLOs being assessed in some years.
