Valencia College's Learning Outcomes Assessment cycle launched in Fall 2020 designed with flexibility for faculty. 教师 and deans convened in collegewide collaborative meetings in September. Following these collegewide meetings, each discipline or program established their Assessment Leadership Team (ALT) made up of in-discipline faculty leads, a faculty fellow, a faculty developer/instructional designer, and other relevant consultants. ALTs initiate the review of course outlines and then lead the development of the assessment and improvement plans in collaborative Canvas spaces. 的 improvement plans generated by the ALTs are presented to the Assessment Coordinating Committee (ACC) for review.
