This report details both a direct assessment of CEAs by their faculty/staff mentors and an indirect assessment of CEAs-a confidential survey of CEAs was administered in spring2021 to gather their perceptions of the program, their learning, and provide opportunities to expand on their responses. A total of 65of 72students responded for a response rate of 90%.Item The IUPUI Comprehensive Learner Record (CLR)(National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment, 2021-03) Daday, Jerry; Hahn, Thomas W.; Morrical, EricaIn 2016, IUPUI began its participation in an effort led by the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO) and NASPA: Association of Student Personnel Administrators, to create and accelerate the development of Comprehensive Learner Records (CLR). While a traditional transcript reflects student performance in coursework over time and serves to document the award of specific credentials and degrees, it does not provide a mechanism for identifying applied and experiential learning within co-curricular programming and within various high-impact practices, such as undergraduate research and community engaged experiences. A CLR provides students with a record of these experiences so that they can appropriately articulate their learning with prospective employers or when applying for graduate and professional programs. With grant funding from the Lumina Foundation, AACRAO and NASPA selected IUPUI and eleven other institutions of higher education to develop and implement a CLR model.Item Assessing the Profiles through Written Reflections of Engaged Learning Experiences Using the AAC&U Written Communication and Integrative Learning VALUE Rubrics(2021-08-18) Hahn, ThomasThis report describes an assessment activity within the IUPUI Institute for Engaged Learning (IEL) for students participating in IEL programs and the Life Health Sciences Internship (LHSI) Program during AY 2020-2021. The IEL Assessment Workgroup assessed written reflection artifacts of 124 students from 14 co-curricular programs. Using selected rows from the Written Communication and Integrative Learning VALUE Rubrics, the raters assessed the Communicator and Problem Solver Profiles of Undergraduate Learning. For Written Communication, overall results indicate that all of the student reflection artifacts at least met the benchmark for Control of Syntax and Mechanics. Nearly all (123 of 124) of the student reflection artifacts at least met the benchmark for Content Development. Overall, 99.6% of the scores for Written Communication met the benchmark. For Integrative Learning, nearly all of the student reflection artifacts (122 of 124) at least met the benchmark for Connections to Experiences. Likewise, nearly all of the student reflection artifacts (123 of 124) at least met the benchmark for Reflection and Self-Assessment. Overall, 98.8% of the scores for Integrative Learning met the benchmark.Item Sam H. Jones (SHJ) Community Service Scholarship Assessment Report (2020-2021)(2021-08) Hahn, ThomasThe Sam H.
