Abstract


Faculty, students, alumni and accreditation reviewers each have their own opinions regarding assessment.  Each source produces reviews that often conflict.  In an attempt to make sense of a variety of assessment procedures and tools, this research tries to find commonality in varied findings. Within this research, faculty, students and alumni are asked to participate in the assessment process in the form of objective and subjective analyses using survey research and focus groups.  The key to the success of this process lies in using data to determine where there is agreement among various sources and to understand when to believe the data to develop and test a course of improvement.
