Analyzing and
Reporting
Assessment Results
Anassessment plan’s value to the
department lies in the evidence if
others about overall department or
program strengths and weaknesses,
and in the evidence it provides for
change (Wright, 1991)
The Best Ways to Analyze
and Interpret Assessment
Information
► Present the data in relation to the program’s identified goals
and objectives
► Use qualitative and quantitative methods to present a well-
balanced picture of the assessment goals and driving questions
► Vary your analysis and reporting procedures according to
identified audiences (accreditors, campus report, etc.)
► Develop recommendations based on the analysis of data and
using identified goals as a framework within which to
accomplish suggested changes
Considerthe Extent to
Which Your Findings Can
Help You Answer the
Following Questions:
What does the data say about students’ mastery of
subject matter, research skills, or writing?
What does it say about benchmark expectations?
What does the data say about your students’
preparation for the second/next quarter?
Are there areas where your students are outstanding?
Do you see weakness in any particular skills, such as
research or critical thinking skills?
If
your assessment
information can shed light on
these issues, the value of
your efforts will become all
the more apparent.
Sayfor instance, data collected
from the assessment of student
performance in a capstone course
should be used to identify areas of
strength and weaknesses in student
“across the students’ entire
experience in the major”.
Thedata should NOT be
used to evaluate the
performance of the
capstone course instructor.
Preparing Effective
Assessment Plans and
Reports
at its most basic, your
report should have enough
information to answer the
basic questions:
What did you do?
Why did you do it?
What did you find?
How will you use it?
Whatis your evaluation of the
assessment itself?
Format of the
Assessment Plans and
Reports
Thereality is that a program rarely
has just one purpose for engaging
in assessment. Therefore, you may
want to develop reports that are
tailored specifically to the
audiences you need to address.
