Assessment of Student Learning

 

Role of the Center for Teaching, Learning and Assessment (CTLA)

The faculty, staff, and administration of Indiana University Kokomo share responsibility for assessing their unit's role in achieving the mission of IU Kokomo and in promoting student learning. The CTLA, as part of Academic Affairs, is the administrative unit which supports faculty and staff engagement in effective, systematic assessment of student learning. CTLA and its Assessment Advisory Council collaborate with departments, the Faculty Senate Assessment Committee, and the Educational Policies Committee to guide and assist units in their assessment efforts. CTLA offers training and consultation on all aspects of the assessment process, including writing plans, designing activities, collecting and analyzing data, and writing reports.
