Geography
Results of Assessment
1999-2000 (submitted 10/00)
The Geography Department has initiated its assessment
procedure by implementing the following:
- An outcomes assessment exam has been produced and
administered to a class of incoming students in one of the department's
introductory classes. The same exam will be administered to students in the
department's senior seminar next semester and a comparison will be made
between the two exam results. It is expected that scores will be much higher
among our graduating seniors. If there are exam subjects where this does not
occur, additional attention will be given to those areas in courses during
the future.
- An exit interview has been devised and will be administered
starting immediately to all graduating seniors. The questionnaire gives
graduating students an opportunity to evaluate their education at WSU in a
number of areas of instruction offered by the department. Attention will be
given to any areas of deficiency identified from the student surveys.
