Follow-up Assessment
Debrief on• the experience (students)• learning outcomes (faculty)• infrastructure and process (staff)
What worked?What surprised you?What could be improved?

Student Perspective
“Never before have I been so into doing a final project – I found myself putting other things aside so I could work on it.”
“The feeling of accomplishment is much greater ... It was such a different kind of assignment.”

Importance of Multiple Strategies
• Take the Pulse, Identify Patterns, Strategize– Formal needs assessment, informal conversations,
consultations, staff networking
• Plant Seeds– Professional development through lunches,
workshops, posters, newsletters
• Pilot and Refine– Elicit feedback from faculty, students, and staff
• Disseminate Results, Scale as Appropriate– Internal and external venues
