Student Learning Reports

Student learning outcomes (SLOs) in degree programs address the knowledge and skills students can expect to acquire upon completion of a program of study. Each outcome must have at least one associated measure and performance standard by which student learning is evaluated. Departments implement a variety of direct and indirect measures to assess student progress within their programs, both formatively and summatively. Annual Student Learning Reports (SLRs) aggregate, synthesize, and report these findings for each degree program and for each discipline in the General Education Program.
