Consider a different kind of assessment plan--an assessment (or evaluation) of your teaching program. How will you use your assessment plan for student learning outcomes as a basis to evaluate your overall teaching program? You can use an online diagram/flow chart (as long as you cite it correctly) to explain how you would approach the different steps of a program evaluation for the purpose of continuous improvement. This is an important component of our work, regardless of the level. We need to know if what we’re doing is working, and that requires that we have a systematic plan for analysis and change.
