Depth and Breadth of Understanding
 Students achieved at least a “Moderate” level of
success for 82% of all course SLOs that aligned
with this GELO.
Critical Thinking
 Students achieved at least a “Moderate” level of
success for 80% of all course SLOs that aligned
with this GELO.

Most of the Critical Thinking data (65%) came
from SLOs that also applied to Depth & Breadth.
Combination of Depth & Breadth/Crit. Thinking

Students achieved at least a “Moderate/High”
level of success for 69% of all course SLOs that
aligned with both of these GELOs.



Small improvements observed across all
GELOs from 2008 data
Room for significant improvement across
most GELOs
Life Skills and Personal Development GELO
included items with some of the highest
ratings and other items with some of the
lowest ratings across all GELOs.

Increase # of courses and # of SLOs used in
future assessments

Expand course-embedded assessment to more
GELOs


Develop more streamlined process for alignment
of course SLOs and determination of level of
success
