Abstract

Working together, faculty and staff at a liberal arts college discovered that putting a twist in the assessment loop through interdepartmental collaborations led to more relevant and useful information about how students are learning at their college. Learn practical methods for sharing measures, conveying results, and using the findings to engage stakeholders and promote a college-wide culture of assessment. The presentation will include an exploration of successful collaborations between academic and student support departments, a discussion of Best Practices, and descriptions of practical tools to use that help facilitate interdepartmental work.
