The University of Idaho, along with all other
public institutions of higher education in Idaho, is required by
policy of the State Board of Education to assess student
learning in general education and in the academic majors. In
late 1991, the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges,
which provides institution wide accreditation for the
university, issued similar guidelines requiring assessment.
Effective teaching and learning are essential to meeting our
long held goal of producing responsible, well-prepared citizens
and leaders in their professions. Our program of student
outcomes assessment has been implemented to ensure that we
continually improve the teaching and learning process and the
programs supporting that process. |

Information vital to effective assessment includes
student performance as well as student opinions on the quality
of university academic programs and services. To provide this
information, students may be required to participate in
assessment activities. These may include, but are not limited
to, examinations, performance assessments, interviews, surveys,
focus groups, and follow-up studies after graduation. Student
based information is used for assessment at the programmatic
level. |
