81-99% 100%5) State the assessment question(s) and/or goals of the assessment activity. Include the SLOs that were targeted, if applicable.
All MBA Program goals, objectives, traits were reviewed. Question was whether BBA students were meeting the goals of the BBA Program
6) State the type(s) of evidence gathered.
Faculty members conducted assessment based on class assignments and tests. Each faculty member teaching a course in which assessment is conducted assessed at least 20% of students in those classes to determine if they exceeded, met or did not meet the goals, objectives and traits. Specific assignments varied by faculty member.

Course instructor(s) Faculty committee Ad hoc faculty group Department chairperson Persons or organization outside the university Faculty advisor Advisors (in student support services) Students (graduate or undergraduate) Dean/Director Other: 8) How did they evaluate, analyze, or interpret the evidence?
Used a rubric or scoring guide Scored exams/tests/quizzes Used professional judgment (no rubric or scoring guide used) Compiled survey results Used qualitative methods on interview, focus group, open-ended response data External organization/person analyzed data (e.g., external organization administered and scored the nursing licensing exam) Other: 9) State how many persons submitted evidence that was evaluated.
If applicable, please include the sampling technique used.
Eleven faculty members conducted assessment in BBA classes. Five Assessment committee members reviewed the results.
10) Summarize the actual results.
Results showed the large majority of students meeting or exceeding all goals. The assessment committee held and open meeting of all faculty conducting assessment. Following discussion, the committee concluded that there was not a need to modifiy either the rubrics or the methodology. If reviewing the curriculum map, the committee noted that one of the goals, having to do with ethics, was to be assessed in a course that is not required of all BBA students. Both the instruction and assessment were shifted to a core BBA course.
11) How did your program use the results? --or-- Explain planned use of results.
Please be specific.
The committee recommended that ethics be taught in a required course, rather than only in an elective course. The Shidler College Faculty approved this change Spring 2010.
