An open learning space that curates content for faculty and assessment professionals through resources and tools for student learning outcomes assessment, teaching and learning, program review and accreditation.
Empowers higher education professionals to leverage data, analytics, information, and evidence to make decisions and take actions that benefit students and institutions and improve higher education.
Assessments should reveal how well students have learned what we want them to learn while instruction ensures that they learn it. For this to occur, assessments, learning objectives, and instructional strategies need to be closely aligned so that they reinforce one another.
Internationally recognized consultant, speaker, writer, and workshop facilitator presents a common sense approach to higher education assessment topics.
Mission is to discover and disseminate ways that academic programs and institutions can productively use assessment data internally to inform and strengthen undergraduate education, and externally to communicate with policy makers, families and other stakeholders.
NILOA has organized and sponsored a series of assignment-design “charrettes” for faculty from around the country. What was learned from facilitating these events as well as information gathered from institutions hosting their own assignment conversations make up the resources presented in this toolkit.
