ASSESSMENT PLAN
As part of the five-year review process, graduates are asked to complete a survey
evaluating the Department, the curriculum, and the quality of their learning experience.
(The Department is considering expanding this program by systematically providing this
survey questionnaire to graduates semester by semester.) |

1997-98 ASSESSMENT
In 1997-98, in conjunction with the Five-Year Program Review, the department conducted a
survey of all students who graduated during the previous five years. Thirty-five students
from the departments major programs returned the survey. A complete report of the
survey may be found in the Program Review document. Just over half (18) have since pursued
further higher education. Seventeen or just under half report that they are employed in
the field of education. Of those who completed endorsement programs, 67% are currently
employed in full-time permanent K-12 education.Graduates report a high degree of satisfaction with the programs of study
offered by the History Department. They believe that the departments courses,
curriculum, and instruction are superior to that of the university as a whole. Further,
they report that their studies provided them with superior writing and thinking skills.
Nearly four-fifths rated the quality of the education in the History Department as either
"superior" or "outstanding." The vast majority (71%) would advise
others to complete a degree program offered by the History department at UNK. Graduate
satisfaction with their program of study was not linked to whether or not they are working
in a history or education related field. This data indicates that the department can be as
confident about student learning in its liberal arts programs as it is in its
education endorsement programs. |
