Seven members of<br />
the college participated<br />
in a General<br />
Education Assessment<br />
Pilot study that<br />
was sponsored by<br />
HLC and Assessment<br />
Quality Institute.<br />
The group met<br />
on 5 full-day sessions<br />
to learn and apply the<br />
steps for the pilot<br />
program. The program<br />
was designed<br />
to teach a way to<br />
assess general education<br />
assessment in<br />
a structured manner.<br />
During the process<br />
the communication<br />
goal was revised and<br />
separated into three<br />
different goals. The<br />
group also created<br />
indicators and rubrics<br />
to be used for assessing.<br />
