Educational Effectiveness and Assessment
The primary goal of Educational Effectiveness and Assessment at Loyola Marymount University is to provide leadership and support in the University’s efforts to create a culture of evidence, learning-centeredness, and continuous improvement. To fulfill this goal, Educational Effectiveness and Assessment has several purposes, including:
- Designing and implementing institution-level assessment projects, including collaborating with the Core Curriculum Committee to develop and implement an assessment plan for the core curriculum.
- Providing consulting support to departments and programs in their assessment efforts, including collaborating with APRC to facilitate the program review process.
- Providing workshops and other training opportunities with the goal of enhancing institutional capacity to engage in assessment.
- Serving as a clearinghouse for assessment projects across campus to ensure better coordination and integration of those projects and reducing duplication of effort.
