Unit name: SLOAP

LO Code: SA01c

Description of learning activity:

Consulting with professional staff, reviewing their draft learning outcome statements and providing appropriate feedback.

• 1. How does this activity complement the University and Student Affairs mission?
  • Assessment activities assist the University by providing the framework, focus, and feedback necessary to evaluate how EOU guides student inquiry and tests how well University activities are integrated. Assessment documents how student learning is holistic, reflective, purposeful, and leads to responsible action in a wider world. Assessment helps the Student Affairs Division by providing the means to plan, manage, and evaluate the effectiveness of programs and activities in leading students to be integrated members of the EOU academic and larger communities. It can also evaluate how well the student Affairs Division promotes access and provides services to students in pursuit of their academic and career goals, and personal development.
