Evaluating Student Outcomes Assessment in the California State University.
Roberts, Helen R.
This final report describes activities and achievements of a two-year qualitative study to determine factors that contribute to successful campus implementation of student outcomes assessment by evaluating 15 student outcomes assessment pilot projects in the California State University system. Data sources included the evaluation reports from each of the pilot projects, interim and final project reports, interviews with project directors, and some site visits. Factors most commonly associated with successful implementation of assessment included: measurement adequacy, faculty involvement, administrative support, and expertise of the project director. Following the executive summary, individual sections of the report present a project overview and describe the project's characteristics, results, evaluation, and plans for continuation and dissemination. The bulk of the report consists of five appendices, including a list of the project's reviewers, newsletter reports of the project, a research report titled "Evaluation of Student Outcomes Assessment Pilot Projects in the California State University" (by Matt L. Riggs and Joanna S. Worthley), and the agenda of a 1991 assessment seminar. (DB)
