CM1 – Mathematics for Science and Engineering
SLO Assessment Timeline: Create Your 4-Year Assessment Plan Directions: Starting in academic year 2011-2012, SLOs will be assessed over a four-year cycle at ECC. Because program review will start occurring in calendar years (i.e. Spring to Fall semester), the grid below is organized by calendar year rather than academic year. Plan out your program’s assessments so that all SLOs (both course- and program-level) are assessed at least once every four years. Year

Program Level 1 Students will analyze problems, recognize appropriate methods of solution, solve the problems, and explain and interpret the solutions. Program Level 2 Students will demonstrate and explain mathematical concepts using a variety of methods Program Level 3 (Start in Fall 2012 and complete it in Spring 2013) Students will and appreciate the nature of mathematical rigor and understand the common features and concepts of mathematical thought and practice.
