Institutional Level.
Direct evaluations at the institutional level are used less frequently and are much more likely to take the form of an examination. An institution may wish to demonstrate that certain goals expressed in its mission were achieved through exposure to the entirety of its curriculum and co-curricular experiences. For example, it may wish to show that regardless of program or major, which co-curricular activities students have participated in, and whether students were residents or commuters, they exhibit cultural sensitivity and global cultural and geographical awareness. It could design an evaluation process to determine the degree to which graduating students exhibited these qualities (e.g., a rubric for reviewing an examination or portfolio). It may appear that such qualities are abstract and, therefore, that the measurement of learning was not direct, but in fact that is not the case. In this example, the goal was to have students learn, through curricular and co-curricular programs, to be good global citizens, broadly speaking, and the hypothetical examination was designed to measure the degree to which this goal was achieved.
General education knowledge, competencies, and skills gained across the curriculum might be evaluated over the entire student experience, whether before or after graduation.
Indirect Methods
Indirect methods of evaluating student learning involve data that are related to the act of learning, such as factors that predict or mediate learning or perceptions about learning but do not reflect learning itself. Indirect evidence often is acquired through the use of self-report format surveys, questionnaires, and interviews. Indirect evidence also is provided in the form of “demographic” statistics about the student population of an institution, such as overall GPA, student retention rates, graduation rates, and job placement rates.
Qualitative information about graduates, such as names of employers, graduate schools attended, and alumni achievements are also common forms of indirect evidence.
