Assessment Reports
The PLO/CLO Direct Assessment Analysis report has been updated to provide greater clarity and to reflect better its ability to analyze data from multiple outcome sets, including Institution, College, Department, and Accreditor outcomes. The report has been renamed to Program/Course Assessment Analysis, and the report description has been updated to the following:
Assess student performance on learning outcomes (PLOs, CLOs, Department/College/Institution, or Accreditor) collected as a part of Course or Program Assessment(s). This report provides a high-level overview of student achievement in meeting outcome assessment goals set at the learning outcome level, aggregated by outcome for selected term(s) at the desired Organizational Hierarchy level (Institutional, down to Course Section).
These changes make it easier to understand the report's full capabilities and provide a more intuitive user experience when configuring report parameters. Learn more about the Program Course Assessment Analysis.
Additionally, the Level parameter for this report and the following additional reports has been renamed to Aggregate Level for improved clarity and consistency with other reports:
-
Direct Assessment Graphs
-
Student Outcome Achievement

If no changes are identified upon import, no change will be made to the course or activity status or content. Learn more about data files.
“With this enhancement, additions and removals through SFTP imports can now be made without triggering unwanted course republishing that could break existing alignments to other modules.” - The Product Team
Data Sets

Self Study Content
To improve the functionality of self study content, smart content functionality has been enhanced. These improvements aim to improve the user experience when working with evidence and page references in self-study documents.
-
When users input a page number, smart content tags will now display page numbers directly in the content label/hyperlink; for example: "PDF Evidence, Page: 4".
-
The page number display format varies depending on how evidence is inserted:
-
For newly inserted evidence: "PDF Evidence, Page: 4".
-
For evidence inserted with pre-existing text: "[Pre-existing text], Page: 4".
-

“This enhancement directs reviewers to specific pages within evidence documents by adding page numbers to smart content links, making it easier to reference exact locations of supporting information.” - The Product Team
Syllabus Compliance Monitoring Report
A new report is now available in the Report Library. The new Syllabus Compliance Monitoring report can be used to audit the compliance of syllabus forms via the population of Required, University Recommended, and Optional form item entries within a common syllabus template. When any of these form item entries are selected, overall compliance will be shown based on the completion of the selected entry types. Learn more about the Syllabus Compliance Monitoring report or the Report Library.

“This first of its kind syllabus report fills a key gap in reporting on being able to audit and review syllabi and their content within in bulk to support critical internal annual review processes and accreditation requirements.” - The Product Team

Learn more about user roles and self study sections.

“This new user role provides safer and more efficient self study review access by offering view-only permissions at the section level, eliminating the need for document exports, and maintaining full traceability within the platform.” - The Product Team
