This term’s assessment report
1: Student Learning Outcomes Being Measured	Provide a complete list of the SLOs being measured. (refer to Numbered NMHED Core Competencies document for guidance)

SAMPLE: By the end of the course, students will be able to edit their writing to achieve appropriate diction, syntax, grammar, and mechanics. 	

	
2: Description of Assessment Instrument(s) and Procedures
	Provide a summary that addressed the following questions: 1) What assessment measures were used in the course? 2) What was the structure and/or process for assessing student learning in the course? 3) Who collects/reviews the assessment results? 4) What is the expected criteria for success or performance benchmark for successfully meeting the SLO? 

SAMPLE: The rubric utilizes a 5-point scale. Students are rated from 1 (No Mastery) to 5 (Mastered). Five sections of English 102 were assessed. Each taught by a different instructor, three 16 week face-to-face, and one first 8 week hybrid and one second 8 week online. The results were collected at the end of the Fall and Spring semesters by the English program director. 70% of the students were expected to receive a rate of 3 or higher on at least 4 of the 6 categories on the rubric. 

*When you submit the report, attach a separate document entitled “Appendix_Course_Instructor”. In this Appendix, please copy and paste a BLANK copy of the assessment instrument(s).

Column 5: Action Plan for Improving Process and/or Student Learning	Provide a summary for improving assessment process and/or student learning

SAMPLE: Editing is large part of the curriculum, and a review of diction, syntax, grammar, and mechanics is now addressed in the curriculum. However, more focused attention on specific student improvement in these areas should be attended to.
