Review the Charter
The Charter was reviewed and was approved without changes.
SLO Day Feedback
The committee discussed the various offering during SLO Day. All sessions had good
feedback. One suggestion for the upcoming cycle is to have a July 31st deadline for SLO assessment. Another idea that was suggested was to have a training
day on Graduation Day when there is available time. The training would consist of
basic SLO entry processes into eLumen and setting up assessments.
Communication SLO Data
This agenda item was discussed with no action items. It was suggested that all courses
embed this ISLO within their assessments. Data was limited due to low assessment activity
within disciplines.
Critical Thinking Assessment Plan
This ISLO will be assessed during the fall semester. Transferrable courses should
have an element of Critical Thinking assessment. John Eigenauer conducted a session
during the fall SLO Day. This session was very helpful to the attendees that participated.
Different strategies were discussed on assessing this ISLO.
Global Awareness Strategies
A brief discussion was had on how to continue the evaluation of this ISLO. Different
global topics were described and strategies were discussed on how to embed in assessments
within disciplines.
Next Meeting: October 20, 2017 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in the Counseling Center Conference Room
