Assessment at Pacifica: Logos
What is Logos?To review and improve our academic effectiveness, a new web-based evaluation framework designed by Tk20 was selected last fall by the Institutional Assessment and Accreditation Committee (IAAC), comprised of Pacifica faculty, staff, and administrators.
Broadly speaking, this framework creates an infrastructure that streamlines data collection and provides customized reports we can use for our own inquiry and for accreditation. |

Why is it important?
This system supports ongoing discussion through greater visibility into educational processes. Reflection and dialogue then can better inform our need for changes, help us track and evaluate our actions, and overall, deepen our ongoing efforts to learn more about our education effectiveness.
How does it directly affect students?
The Logos system will enable students to participate in and manage a variety of assessment activities.
All students will fill out newly-revised course evaluations on-line beginning in fall quarter 2011.
