Evaluate students’ answers
to questions about safety measures embedded in course exams. Evaluate students’ ability
to select and classify the appropriate electrodes on class projects. Use an assessment rubric to
evaluate students’ practical applications on selected class projects. Use an
assessment rubric to evaluate students’ written communication skills on
summary reports of practical applications. |
At least 80 percent of
students will answer each embedded question correctly on selected examinations. At least 80 percent of
students will complete this task successfully on selected projects. The average
rating of student achievement in each performance category will be 3 or
higher on a 4-point scale. The average
rating of student achievement in each performance category will be 3 or
higher on a 4-point scale. |

CEO # 1. The instructor will revamp assignments
and assessment techniques in an effort to help students demonstrate
competency in written communication skills when developing reports of
practical applications. Teaching Methods and/or Evaluation
Techniques. The instructor will require summary reports
for additional practical applications. He will preview
the writing assessment rubric with students before the initial summary report
and share assessment results with them as they complete each report,
emphasizing areas needing improvement. |
Students will
average 3.0 or higher in each performance category for written communication
skills on selected summary reports. |
