Simple, Transparent, and Less Burdensome: Re-Envisioning Core Assessment at a Regional Public University
Abstract:This article discusses how a faculty-driven process utilized the mantra of "simple, transparent, and less burdensome" to reform assessment at a regional Midwestern university. We detail how an assessment task force transformed an unwieldy, cumbersome, and disjointed assessment scheme into a systematic, specific, and actionable assessment plan that also began to cultivate a culture of assessment that focuses on improving student learning instead of assessment focused on compliance, that is, meeting accreditation requirements. Keywords: higher education, assessment, general education curriculum assessment
