  1. OUTCOMES ASSESSMENT Developing and Implementing an Effective Plan

  2. Principle 1. Outcome Assessment • Excellence in sport management education is evaluated through the assessment of student learning outcomes and operational outcomes. • Institution is required to have developed and fully implemented an O/A process.

  3. Creating the Outcomes Assessment Plan 1. Mission and Broad-Based Goals 2. Student Learning Outcomes 3. Basic Skills Development 4. Student Personal Development 5. Methods for Measuring Effectiveness

  4. Mission and Broad-Based Goals • Institution: Provide your institution’s approved mission & broad-based goals • Sport Management Program: Provide the approved broad-based goals for your sport management program • Measurement: State how you will provide evidence that the goals are being accomplished

  5. Student Learning Outcomes • Description of what your students are able to do • Clear and measurable • Related to the goals of the institution. • Identify measurement tools you will use/Rubric design What is a learning outcome?

  6. Measure Attainment of Learning Outcomes • Identify a minimum of: • two direct measures • two indirect measures • Explain the process for how your measures will provide meaningful results • Provide copies of your instruments/rubrics in the appendix

  7. Determine Measures and Assessment Tools Types of Measures: • Student Learning Outcomes (Direct) • Student Learning Outcomes (Indirect) • Student Satisfaction (Indirect) • Operational Effectiveness (Indirect) Note: Two direct and two indirect measures are required.

  8. Direct Measures Direct Measures: Demonstrates direct evidence of student learning Examples: • Comprehensive exams • Standardized national exams • Pretest and posttest assessments • Portfolios • Capstone assessment

  9. Pre/Post Testing • Develop test to address course content – relate to CPC areas • Administration • Embed within select course • Introduction to sport management • Capstone seminar • Set benchmarks for expected improvement

  10. Written & Oral Communication Assessment Written • Format • Mechanics • Grammar • Content • Organization • Style Oral Communication • Use of technology • Presentation design • Speaks clearly • Enthusiasm • Stays on topic • Content • Professional Image

  11. Capstone Assessment • Capstone course measurements • Foundation courses used as a basis for instrument development • Internship Portfolio • Case study

  12. Case Assessment - Selection & Question Development • Direct Measure – link to specific outcome • Define clear purpose • What are you trying to measure? • Broad range of outcomes vs. specific areas • Issues to consider • Is the case comprehensive enough to address all areas being assessed • Case selection for graduate and undergraduate programs

  13. Case Selection & Question Development (cont.) • Select Specific Learning Outcome • Demonstrate knowledge of the fundamental principles of the sport management field. • Cases and questions developed to address this outcome • Questions tested, reviewed and refined

  14. Development Of Evaluation Rubric • Rubric development • Analysis of core sport management content areas and relevancy of measurement through selected case • Evaluation criteria and weightings agreed upon • Grading consistency • Training

  15. Indirect Measures Indirect Measures: Indirect evidence of student learning outcomes (asking versus demonstrating) Examples: • Internship evaluations • National or program-specific student satisfaction surveys - NSSE • Student SWOT analysis • Alumni survey

  16. Basic Skills Development • Prepare a statement on the “Basic Skills” development program at your institution • Describe how this is administered within the sport management dept. • Programs to help students with writing deficiencies • Tutoring services

  17. Personal Development of Students • Prepare a statement on the “Personal Development” of students at your institution • Describe how this is administered within your academic unit • Special programs focused on personal development – student leadership • First year seminar

  18. Measuring Program Effectiveness • Explain how you will measure the effectiveness of your sport management program • Accomplishment of goals and objectives in the strategic plan • Retention data • Graduation rates • Teaching evaluations • SWOT

  19. Final Step – Action Plans

  20. Problem Areas • Direct measures – linking measure to specific outcome • Rubric development & data collection • Go beyond use course grades • Role of teaching evaluations
