GENERAL EDUCATION ASSESSMENT In order to document student learning in the General Education Program and to gather evidence related to the overall effectiveness of this new program, the General Education Review Board has designed a comprehensive assessment plan that includes a variety of both internal and external measures. There are three primary means of assessing the General Eduction skills: Common Graded Assignments (CGA): Discipline teams known as GREATs (General Assessment Teams) design assignments to be graded according to an accompanying rubric. Papers are randomly selected from designated courses and are graded by trained scorers at the end of each semester. SIR II: This evaluation instrument is administered to students to obtain feedback on items such as instructor effectiveness, course delivery preferences, and relevance of assignments to course requirements.The General Education Review Board designed four questions to be included in the SIR II to elicit student feedback regarding the General Education Program goals. Academic Profile: is a standardized assessment instrument created by the College Board and the Educational Testing Service.While the Academic Profile does not provide feedback on all of the General Education criteria, it does provide some feedback that can be used to create baseline data regarding how CCBC students perform.   GREAT Information and Summary Reports
