Rubric Assisted Assessment of Outcomes-Based Computer Programming Courses
|
- William Grimsley, University of Charleston
|
| Institutions interested in becoming outcomes-based are developing ways to provide better assessment of course enrollees, the course provider, and the delivery methodologies utilized. The University of Charleston is striving to become a nationally recognized leader in the areas of outcomes-based education and assessment. To aid in the generation of valuable feedback and to improve the standardization of university-wide assessment, rubrics have been developed for both written and oral communication skills.
The rubric to be discussed in this session has been used in Visual Basic Programming courses, but with modification it may be used in courses dealing with other computer programming languages or other subject matter. This presentation will detail the evolutionary process of the rubric creation and describe how it improves student assessment, course evaluation, and how it generates information useful to administrators and accrediting bodies. Attendees will be given a copy of the Rubric and the accompanying
Explanation Sheet. |
