• Coordination of life-long learning (i) instruments in MET 310 and MET 321..
Curriculum Review Summary
• Life-long Learning  - Dr. Han has implemented a writing assignment designed to assess cognitive development level.  This has been correlated to life-long learning behaviors.  The assignment is designed to elicit from each student responses that target the gates needed to determine their cognitive development.  Dr. Howard will repeat this in the alternate-year MET 321 course.  Additionally, students will be required to write a personal/professional development plan and present it to their peers in MET 321.
• The average increased from 3.5 (2003) to 3.8 (2004).  No score variation was given in 2004.

2005          
Previous Curriculum Action Review Summary
Cognitive-Level Assessment is now Bi-annual. Discontinue the Met 321 cognitive writing instrument from outcome (i) assessment.  The results of the cognitive-level assessment are to be completed by Dr. Stu Kellogg.  Although we appreciate this service it does make our assessment dependant on personnel outside the program. We may want to consider paying Dr. Kellogg for his service or training ourselves to complete the cognitive assessment.  We will continue under the current aegis; however, to minimize the burden on Dr Kellogg the cognitive assessment will be performed in Met 310 only.
Curriculum Review Summary
The outcome summaries increased and the range was about the same as the previous year.
