ASSESSMENT


Meeting Notes

April 27, 2004

Attendance: Jane Tuttle, Diana Robertson, Emily Malin, Joann Keyton, Karen Multon, Jim Daugherty, Ann Eversole, Jonathan Ng

Notes:
We reviewed the evaluation protocol/model and made grammatical corrections.

  • We discussed the final report that will make these recommendations and ideas:
  • The tool is not to be used until the success factors are finalized.
  • There should be 2 hour workshops offered that cover hands-on evaluation methods.
  • This is a planning tool as well as an evaluation model. It is flexible, dynamic and fluid.
  • Non-users of a service/program need to be included.
  • Every service should be reviewed within a three year cycle.
  • When to do the evaluation in the cycle is the user’s decision although we recommend it be done in preparation for budget development and planning for next academic year.
  • Decisions need to be made about who completes the evaluation; however, it should be someone who can make it actionable.
  • The language is broad as this process is inherent in the tool. This is not an evaluation form.

On behalf of the Priority Chairs, Jane thanked everyone for brining a concept into an action and for sharing their expertise so willingly.

Everyone asked for a copy of the final report that will be given to Dr. Roney and Dean Johnson; however, no one felt a need to review it prior to its submission. We will include a completed evaluation model form with the report to illustrate that it was field-tested and adaptable.
