Assessment: | To be done each of the first four semesters that the course is taught and then once every two years thereafter. The assessment is to be based on a comprehensive final covering each of the objectives given below. The final will be constructed to have one question for each objective with those questions similar to each of the example questions given below. The final will be graded by the instructor but a random sample of 20% of the tests will be blind graded by another member or members of the department. If the blind grading confirms the instructor's grading to the 90% level, then the instructor's grading will be used for assessment. If there is a discrepancy between the two gradings then all of the non-sampled finals will be blind graded as above and those grades will be used for assessment. Each objective will be considered satisfied if the pass-rate for the objective's question is 75% or higher for all students receiving a C+ or better. |
