What are appropriate assessment measurement methods for program competencies?
Assessment is measured both directly and indirectly. Direct methods of measurement may include: capstone projects, portfolios, standardized tests, pre-post testing, essay questions, juried review of comprehensive projects, and even individual assignments or tests. Indirect methods of measurement may include: surveys (alumni, graduate, employer), exit interviews, retention studies, transfer studies, graduation rates, placement data, and focus groups.
