The refinement of the process over five cycles of assessment.
Case analyses completed for the college-wide CBA capstone course (MGT 405) were examined.
CBA’s former Director of Assessment developed a rubric after extensive review of existing critical thinking instruments
2 CBA faculty worked with the former Director of Assessment to rate the case analyses using the rubric following a training and norming session

Final exams completed for the college-wide CBA capstone course (MGT 405) were examined.
Course Instructor and Director of Assessment developed a rubric after reviewing the 2006 rubric and others from the critical thinking literature.
Rubric was widely distributed to students during the semester.
Instructor & Director of Assessment rated the final exams using the revised rubric following training and norming sessions.
7 Point scale from Weak to Excellent Expectations determined post-hoc based
on examination of means for dimensions. Dimensions:1. Clear understanding of the question and issues to be addressed.2. Understanding of the relevant concepts and frameworks.3. Effective application of relevant concepts to address
question/issues.4. Ability to effectively use case data (depth & breadth) to illustrate a
position.5. Ability to think strategically (i.e. integrate across internal &
external environment; across functional areas; take a general management view).
6. Ability to arrive at logical and well reasoned conclusions based on the discussion.

Final exams completed for the college-wide CBA capstone course (MGT 405) were examined.
Course Instructor and Director of Assessment refined 2009 rubric based on mapping & experience.
Rubric was widely distributed to students during the semester.
Two independent CBA faculty members rated the final exams using the revised rubric following training and norming sessions.
7 Point scale from Weak to Excellent retained. Expectations determination post-hoc based on
examination of means for dimensions retained. Dimensions from Cycle #2 Rubric were
reduced by one and wording modified in some cases:
1. Clear understanding of the question and issues to be addressed.2. Knowledge of case facts & ability to effectively use case data to
illustrate position.3. Effective understanding and application of the relevant concepts and
frameworks.4. Ability to think strategically (i.e. integrate across internal & external
environment; across functional areas; holistically from firm perspective).

Conclusions & Recommendations
4 recommendations were made by the assessment team regarding ways to improve the analytic and critical thinking skills of our students. Faculty should encourage students to make clear problem
statements without hedging. Students should be asked to show their use of models and tools and
to demonstrate a clear connection between those models and their analysis.
Faculty should model the use of data in developing solutions to cases and problems.
Students should be given opportunities to learn how to support recommendations with evidence by writing and revising these sections of their papers.
An additional recommendation was to urge faculty to grade assignments with a rubric and to distribute the rubric to students prior to assignment submission
A Memo was sent to all CBA faculty detailing the recommendations and strongly urging them to adopt them
A number of faculty members across the college expressed interest in learning more about the use of rubrics and rubric development.
The CBA Assessment Committee developed a short “rubric primer” which was distributed to the CBA faculty along with examples of rubrics available online and rubrics currently being used in the college.

* Dimensions combined to form single SLO measure
Our students appear to have improved slightly in meeting expectations between Cycles #1 & #2. The benchmark was not achieved for any
dimension in Cycle #1 but was achieved on one and very nearly on a second dimension in Cycle #2.
Overall, however, benchmarks were not met for either SLO.
Our students continue to struggle with critical thinking.
The Undergraduate Committee was heartened by the improvement between Cycles #1 & #2 albeit small.
A decision was made to reassess Critical Thinking in one year to determine if the improvement was the beginning of a trend prior to making additional “Loop Closing” decisions.

Although the number of students meeting expectations continues to increase, there was a significant decline in those exceeding expectations between Cycles #2 & #3.
The percent of students failing to meet expectations for SLO #2 was particularly discouraging.
The UG curriculum map indicated that virtually all faculty members believed they were delivered critical thinking skills in their courses.
The Undergraduate Committee and the Assessment Committee discussed and concluded that faculty needed specific models of exercises and assignments that address critical thinking.
A “Best Practices in Critical Thinking” workshop for faculty was planned and implemented.

Slight improvement in the % of students meeting and/or exceeding expectations for both SLOs. Not significant.
Percent of students exceeding expectations for SLO #1 remained constant from Cycle #4 however 9 % decline in % of students exceeding expectations for SLO #2.
Acknowledged that percent exceeding expectations continues to remain well below the established benchmark. The UG Committee believes that with 5 cycles of data
complete it may be time to reassess the “Exceeding” benchmark.
