Assurance of Learning Standards

Approaches to Assurance of Learning:

The school must demonstrate what learning occurs for each of the learning goals the school identifies as appropriate for its programs.  This discussion focuses on approaches schools can use to assure that students achieve learning expectations.  By no means does this imply that these approaches exhaust the ways schools can demonstrate that learning goals are met.  This presentation of different approaches is meant to declare that no single approach to assurance of learning is required.  Schools are encouraged to choose, create, and innovate learning measures that fit with the goals of the degree programs, pedagogies in use, and the schools' circumstances.

Selection
Course-embedded measurement
Demonstration through stand-alone testing or performance
