Programmatic Expectations
ELED, EDGS, EDSS and TEBD majors;
TRDG and TTCH minors

Failure of our candidates to meet any of these expectations
would be interpreted as indicating an area in need of improvement.

SA On each of the Signature Assignments, we expect 80% or our students to reach "Meets Expectations" (Basic) or higher.
FEPA ‐ Practicum On each item of the Field Experience Performance Assessment, we expect 80% of our Practicum candidates to reach "Meets Expectations" or higher.
FEPA ‐ Student Teaching On each item of the Field Experience Performance Assessment, we expect 95% of our Student Teaching candidates to reach "Meets Expectations" or higher.
TWS On each section of the Teacher Work Sample, we expect 95% of our Student Teaching candidates to reach "Meets Expectations" or higher.
Praxis II The state of Montana has not established itself as a ‘testing state’ in the legal sense defined by the Educational Testing Service. Mandating the use of a standardized content exam has been politically untenable, so the Montana colleges of education agreed on the use of multiple measures that include the Praxis II exam. “Minimum scores” were established by the Montana Council of Deans of Education in a tripartite metric that also includes subject matter GPA and recommendation by the cooperating teacher for student teaching. We currently use the PRAXIS II minimum scores determined by Montana’s Office of Public Instruction in recommendation for licensure.
Graduate Survey On each of the five objectives, we expect at least 80% of our graduates’ survey responses to indicate that our graduates felt they were prepared at the “Basic” level or higher. Not all candidates respond to the survey.
Employer Survey On each of the five objectives, we expect at least 80% of our employers’ survey responses to indicate that they felt our graduates were prepared at the “Basic” level or higher. Implementation of the Employer Survey has been problematic.

Schedule for Assessing Each Outcome
While we understand the university expects a three or four year cycle for each assessment, our Teacher Education Program's national accrediting organization, the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP), expects annual reporting and review, so we study and report on this assessment data each year.
Schedule for Reviewing Assessment Plan Elements
We are writing a pre‐accreditation report for CAEP in fall 2014, and for the state of Montana in spring 2015, in anticipation of a joint CAEP/Montana accreditation. We will not be making significant changes to our established assessment system between the writing of those reports and the time of those visits, November 1‐4, 2015. The results of those visits may be a factor in determining our schedule for reviewing our assessment plan. Assuming all goes well, the suggested review of each element every three years, doing outcomes one year, rubrics the next, and the matrix and schedule the year after, could be adopted.

Annual Assessment Process ‐ TEP

1 Data is collected each semester from faculty in identified courses by the Teacher Education Program's Assessment Coordinator and housed in the Program Assessment System database.
2 Annually an assessment data team consisting of faculty aided by graduate student assistants requests both raw data for all students in the identified courses and aggregated statistics by program from the Assessment Coordinator for that year's analysis. The data team my chose to modify or refine their requests as needed each year.
3 The data team analyzes data for validity and reliability. Areas where established performance thresholds have not been met are highlighted.
4 The team provides reports for each of the programs in the Department of Education, as well as other licensure areas in the Teacher Education Program housed in other departments.
5 Faculty in each program review the assessment results and make decisions, in coordination with other faculty and administration, on how to respond.
If performance thresholds have not been met, possible responses include but are not limited to:
  • Gather additional data next year to verify or refute the result.
  • Identify and modify some aspect of the curriculum to fix the problem.
  • Modify the acceptable performance threshold if it is found to have been inappropriate.
  • Select or create a better assignment to assess the outcome.
Faculty may choose to respond to assessment results even if the acceptable performance threshold has been met.
6 A summary of the year's assessment activities and faculty decisions will be reported to the Provost's Office in our Department's Annual Assessment Activities report.

Assessment Schedule
Technology Education Industrial Technology Option

Schedule for Assessing Each Outcome
We understand the university expects a three or four year cycle for each assessment, however it is important that our program content strives to meet current industry practices. Therefore faculty review assessment data each year in order to make modifications to the curriculum which reflect current industry practices.
Schedule for Reviewing Assessment Plan Elements

Due to a change in Technology Education faculty during the last two years, review of program outcomes/assessments has not been conducted as it has been historically. This academic year a new tenure track faculty member has been hired and as such, a review of program assessments will once again take place annually.


Back to Top

Annual Assessment Process
Technology Education Industrial Technology Option

1 At the end of each semester Technology Education faculty come together to review the final grades assigned in each of the courses.
2 Courses in which students did not attain the minimum scores are identified.
3 A review of the student(s) progress in the course takes place and areas of weakness are noted.
4 If in fact multiple students did not meet the minimum expectations of a course and demonstrated similar areas of weakness in a course, those areas are flagged as needing modification/improvement prior to the next offering of the course.
5 When course design takes place for the next offering of the course(s) curricular changes are implemented in areas such as, but not limited to, course reading materials, demonstrations, activities, projects, mid‐ term & final course assessments. These changes are based on a review of current practice both in the classroom and industry, as well as previous course evaluations.
6 Upon completion of the revised course, faculty first evaluate student performance in the previously identified areas of weakness to ensure the modifications to the course resulted in an increase in student(s) achievement.
