General Education Assessment

Motion to Align General Education Courses with Faculty Senate Approved Criteria

The general education curriculum at the University of Maine makes up one third of a student’s academic experience. In order to better understand how our general education is meeting the determined general education student learning outcomes, we are in the process of assessing the curriculum by holding faculty scoring sessions of student artifacts. A random sample of student artifacts is collected and scored against the rubric for the general education area to which it is aligned. The reports for each scoring session can be accessed below.
