Direct Measures
Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) Statement of Mutual Responsibilities
for Student Learning Outcomes
“Institutions and programs share responsibility with accrediting organizations for providing clear and credible information to constituents about what students learn.”
14
Direct Measures
• Should not rely on any single measure for complete picture
• Performance-based assessments:– Measure content knowledge + skill sets
– “What students know and what they can do with what they know.”
– Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA)
15
Accreditation Focus: from Inputs to Outputs
• Direct Assessments of Student Learning

What are UNO’s key collaborative relationships?
• Address specific relationships with educational organizations, businesses, and other organizations. Also address the nature of the relationship (existing or emerging, feeder or receiver, community support, outsource, etc.).
• External collaborative partners might include organizations that are the sources of entering students (high schools, community colleges, places of work); organizations that are the destination of exiting students (four-year institutions, graduate schools, places of work); suppliers such as food services, book suppliers, and student recruiting services; external agencies such as state coordinating boards or state, local, or national governments; religious organizations; and other institutions or consortia of institutions.
Exercise
• If applicable, how do the relationships support changes in UNO’s direction?
Exercise
In what ways do these collaborative relationships reinforce UNO’s institutional mission?
How does UNO create, prioritize, and build relationships with the following?
• Educational institutions and other organizations from which UNO receives students
• Educational institutions and employers that depend on a supply of UNO students and graduates who meet their requirements
• Organizations that provide services to UNO students
• Education associations, external agencies, consortia partners, and the general community with which UNO interacts
