Assessment

Since the outset of the revised GenEd Program (Fall 2001), the GenEd Committees and Boards have reviewed syllabi and worked with faculty members and departments to ensure that courses meet and would continue to meet the GenEd component's Hallmarks.

The process of moving UHM faculty who teach GenEd courses to a learner-centered mindset will take time. Efforts underway include:

• student surveys

• creation of student learning outcomes

• system-wide coordination of student learning outcomes

• review of course syllabi and assignments

• interviews with faculty members

• faculty development workshops
