​Assessment of Learning

At UWSP, the assessment of student learning is intended to provide the foundation for all academic planning and decision making.  The ultimate goal of assessment is to ensure the continuous improvement of student learning as well as the courses, programs, and policies that make it possible. 

The review and evaluation of assessment results is the responsibility of the Assessment Subcommittee, which resides under the Faculty Senate’s Academic Affairs Committee.  Presently, the subcommittee has received the Senate’s approval to suspend the receipt of regular program as​sessment reports while it works to revise its procedures.  To review the timeline for this revision, see the link at the right. 

As part of this revision, the Assessment Subcom​mittee is sponsoring a series of UWSP Assessment Academy workshops to assist departments in improving their evaluations of student learning.  The workshops for this fall semester focus on curriculum mapping.  They will take place September 24 and December 3 from 2-4pm in the DUC Legacy Room.
