Assessment-Based Interventions

 

 

 

Putting assessment data to good use is paramount to an useful assessment program. To that end, the Center, in conjunction with Academic Assistance Programs, provides services meant to aid academic programs in developing cross-collaborative student interventions based on assessment data.

Representatives from both the Center and from Academic Assistance Programs meet with faculty to determine their specific intervention needs. The Center's staff assist faculty in developing or selecting the right measure for the intervention such as a prerequisite mathematics skills exam. The staff of Academic Assistance Programs work with department faculty to decide how best to allocate the appropriate resources and how to develop the intervention best suited to the students' needs such as half-day math workshops or free on-site tutoring sessions.  Examples of some assessment-based interventions are listed below.
