  • Fall 2020 Report on Assessment September 2020
    Fall 2020 Report on Assessment September 2020 Full Report The report that follows represents a departure from the standard format of the Fall assessment report to the Board of Regents. Typically, the Assessment Committee uses the Fall report to communicate results from institution-wide assessment surveys or instruments administered to students during the prior academic year. These instruments follow a three-year rotation. For 2019-20, the scheduled instrument was the HEDS (Higher Education Data Sharing) Consortium Research Practices Survey (RPS). However, in consulting with library staff, who were originally involved in the creation of the HEDS RPS and are the primary users of the data, we made the decision to discontinue this survey instrument. The consensus was that the survey is somewhat outdated and no longer directly relevant for understanding students’ informational literacy skills. There is interest among college librarians in identifying a replacement instrument that will be consistent with the newly developed ILOs specifically tailored to the library's engagement with first-year courses. However, the excess demands placed on library staff due to COVID-19 and the resulting shift away from regular in-person teaching has delayed these conversations. Although there were not any scheduled institutional instruments administered last year, the Assessment Committee presents this report to update the Board on the wealth of other assessment-related activities that took place in 2019-20 and the many changes to assessment occurring at St. Olaf in the coming year. HEDS COVID-19 Institutional Response Student Survey In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the abrupt shift to remote teaching made by many institutions, the Higher Education Data Sharing (HEDS) Consortium developed a COVID-19 Institutional Response Student Survey that institutions could use to gain feedback from students on the institution’s response to the pandemic, students’ worries and concerns, and their experiences with remote learning.

Sir: - In accordance with the Statutes, I submit herewith the report on the work and progress of the Library for the year ending May 31, 1912, the third which I have had the honor to make. It is possible again to record an increase in the attendance. The total figures are 13,773, as against 13,112 last year. The greatest increase 'occurred in the evening period. That this " attendance " is equivalent to " use," most conservatively esti­ mated, is evident when the method of keeping the statistics is taken into account, i. e. that of counting an individual but once in the day period and once in the evening period, however many times he may come in during those periods.
