Outcomes Assessment Summary

📙 Knowledge Base Tip: Reviewing the Report Library article before utilizing any reports is recommended.

This report disaggregates student learning outcomes performance by student attributes and/or major/degree program. This report is most valuable for institutions seeking to review performance for program or org-hierarchy outcomes. User roles with permissions to utilize this report include:

  • College Admin

  • Department Admin

  • Institution Admin

  • Program Coordinator

Product Tip

Users with Organizational Hierarchy roles (e.g., Institutions Admin, College Admin, etc.) will only see the business objects (colleges, departments, courses, etc.) they are associated with. For example, College Admins can configure report parameters and view report results only for the course sections associated with the colleges for which they are assigned the admin role.

Use Cases

Improving Program Effectiveness

Institutions can use this report to disaggregate performance by student attributes and degree program to identify patterns and areas where students may struggle with certain learning outcomes. For example, if students with lower GPAs consistently perform poorly in certain outcomes, the Institution may implement targeted interventions, such as tutoring, additional resources, or curriculum adjustments, to help students succeed.

Promoting Equity in Education

By disaggregating data, Institutions can determine whether students are not meeting certain learning outcomes. Institutions can then introduce targeted support systems, diversity-focused teaching strategies, or mentorship programs to foster an equitable learning environment and improve outcomes for all students.
