Philosophy of Assessment at Lincoln College
Lincoln College is committed to assessment as a means to improve student learning and institutional effectiveness. This commitment is demonstrated through faculty involvement in academic assessment and the integration of student services staff and faculty in the assessment of co-curricular and non-academic programs. In this manner, the College fosters a culture of assessment of student learning throughout the College community to improve student learning and success and to measure the institution’s effectiveness in achieving its mission.
Lincoln College strives for transparency with all interested constituents in the assessment process by:
- Encouraging critical reflection and self-examination of all aspects of campus operations;
- Providing information on learning outcomes and goal achievement to decision-makers and interested constituents of the College community; and
- Promoting regular review of curricula, programs, and student learning resulting from assessment data.
