Communications

The development and implementation of the SLOs:

• Provides a strategic way to improve teaching and learning
• Helps ensure the reaccreditation of the University
• Helps to address increasing federal concerns about measurement and accountability in higher education
• Better prepares students to speak to their experience and knowledge
• Helps energize and build interest among various groups about the University's commitment to exceptional teaching and learning
  

Faculty play a key role in communicating the SLOs to students through syllabi, class assignments, grading rubrics, and evaluations / assessments of student learning.
