Assessment
The Center for the Study of Student Life prides itself on the staff's efforts to reach out to the thirty-plus departments within Student Life in a personalized way. Representatives from CSSL meet with each department at least once per quarter and lead departments through the assessment process. From articulating expected outcomes to designing outcomes-based assessment plans, we support our departments every step of the way.
At the end of each year, Student Life departments showcase their hard work and contribution to student learning and success through the annual report process. Here, departments outline how they have reached their goals and present their results from their one outcomes-based assessment.
For more information about our process, please see Outcomes-Based Assessment. If you are designing your own assessment and would like help, please see Resources. Our approach to assessment helps Student Life showcase the stories of all Student Life departments by weaving together the numerical and written evidence that Student Life departments contribute a great deal students' success at The Ohio State University.
