Goal assessments are conducted across multiple general education courses with the same stated general education goal to assess how well we are meeting said goal as a program. In the first cycle of review, each goal was assessed in a two-semester cycle; first a smaller beta review and then a full review. Randomly sampled artifacts from courses associated with general education review are assessed using rubrics derived from the AAC&U Values Rubric Project. Past review cycles have reports linked below.
