Mapping Program and University Goals

Writing an Assessment Report

Annual Assessment Reports will now take place in Planning and Self Study effective for the 2022-2023 Academic Year. Department Assessment Coordinators and Chairpersons can use this application as of April 2023. The first time working an annual assessment report, please contact Kenny Beyer at k-beyer@neiu.edu. Tk20 will no longer be used for this process.

Assessment Workshops will be held the weeks of September 11 & September 18 in September 2023 for completing the 2022-2023 report.  Future communications via this website as well as email notification to department chairpersons and assessment coordinators will be sent in early September 2023.

Student Learning and Licensure (SL&L) Guides

Starting in Fall 2022, NEIU will begin the transition from using Tk20 for course based assessment to Student Learning and Licensure (SL&L). This transition should conclude by Summer 2023 which means as of Fall 2023 Tk20 will not be used for course based assessment anymore.

Embedded course-based assessment is one of the easiest ways to collect and analyze data for program assessment. As a program, you decide which course(s) and provide a rubric to the NEIU Administrative Assessment Coordinator. Once the everything is setup you can have it embedded in your D2L course shell or just work with it within SL&L.
