How can assessment results be used to improve general education?
The primary goal of our course-centered, outcomes-based GER assessment is to provide faculty with the data they need to improve their courses as GER courses. In addition, writing the assessment gives faculty the opportunity to summarize their findings and any resulting teaching enhancements for other interested parties, notably the academic department and the Council on Undergraduate Education. This information provides both groups the ability to make decisions that can enhance general education. For a detailed description of the benefits of assessment results, see GER Assessment: What Happens To Assessment Results.
