IGE Idea Lab: Program Assessment & Evaluation - A 12-Step Process
June 12, 2024
2:00-3:00pm ET
Program assessment and evaluation are essential processes for understanding, improving, and maximizing the impact of programs designed to improve graduate education. In this Idea Lab, learn about a 12-step process for engaging in continuous reflection and improvement to ensure that our programs effectively meet their objectives and make a positive difference in the lives of our targeted stakeholders. Led by Dr. Janis Bush, PI for an NSF Innovations in Graduate Education (IGE) grant, this Idea Lab will draw from lessons from a recent initiative, Advancing and Strengthening Science Identity through Systematic Training (ASSIST).
By participating in this Idea Lab, participants will be able to:
1. Identify the 12-step process in program assessment and evaluation.
2. Develop assessment criteria
3. Describe challenges in program assessment.
4. Make meaningful recommendations for improvement of their programs.
This webinar is part of the Innovations in Graduate Education (IGE) Hub, supported by the National Science Foundation (#2105723).
