Developed by faculty and staff across three collaborative working sessions in Summer 2023.
An email first day of faculty being back on contract shares some context of General Education. This email is followed by a procedural email by the General Education Learning Outcome Assessment Committee.
Faculty are asked to share whether they chose the more global prompt or are using the Alaska-Community prompt for their participation in the LO4 assessment. Faculty will receive an email for each GER course they are teaching.
The faculty's choice will result in receiving a student-facing assignment as crafted by the General Education Learning Outcome Assessment Committee. Faculty will set the parameters of the deadline for students to submit their evidence of completing the assignment; student receive an email receipt of completing the assignment and can upload in a course shell or email whatever the faculty member prefers.
We ask faculty to "assign" the assignment in the second half of their GER course. We make it easy by emailing faculty the assignment to add to their courses in whatever way works.
Students complete the assignment through a provided link to a form.
Faculty will be given a list of who turned in the assignment and they may, if they wish, provide extra credit, incorporate the assignment into their grading, or just review the assignments to assess student learning on their own, but they are not required to do any of those things.
We do not expect syllabus redesign or additional graded labor.
