Assessment Coordinator

From Trevor Jorgensen, Assessment Coordinator:

I have been Assessment Coordinator since Fall 2105. I was part of the first group of Assessment Fellows directed by former Assessment Coordinator Dr. K. Brad Wray. Dr. Wray was instrumental to the development and implementation of strong assessment practices for our campus and I benefited tremendously from his guidance. Since being exposed to the assessment of student learning I have had extensive training at conferences and workshops conducted by nationally recognize experts. I also have developed a greater understanding of the Middle States Commission of Higher Education expectations serving as a Periodic Review Report Committee Member.

My work on campus is supported by the Assessment Advisory Committee (AAC), the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment, and the Provost’s Office.

I have two main responsibilities:

First, I help departments with major and program assessment, graduate studies assessment, and non-academic offices student learning outcome assessment. I can assist with (i) developing or revising assessment plans, (ii) developing program learning outcomes, (iii) curriculum mapping, (iv)developing or identifying effective instruments for assessing learning outcomes, (v) interpreting assessment data, and (v) articulating a plan of action in light of the assessment data gathered.

Second, I am responsible for providing faculty with assessment-related training opportunities and aiding departments and faculty members in getting support to attend assessment-related workshops and conferences. I also oversee the Assessment Fellows program, present workshops on campus, and host guest experts.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need assistance in assessing student learning or organizing an assessment workshop for your department.
