Learning Outcome 1: Quick Facts

As a result of attending the HPEC’s Quick Facts on Health (Quick Facts) guest lecture students will be more able to identify at least three facts covered in the presentation.

Assessment Measures
Direct and indirect measures are utilized to assess student learning and outcomes through Qualtrics pre- and post-testing and evaluations. Knowledge change, as measured through pre- and post-testing true/false statements, is the primary direct measure. Indirect measures, utilizing Likert scales, include assessment of student perceptions of knowledge change, behavioral intentions, further knowledge needs. Outcomes are assessed in relation to identified program objectives.

Assessment Data Collection Plan
Data is collected at Quick Facts presentations* throughout the academic school year. Data review and discussion occurs periodically throughout the year. *Assessment data is generally collected for presentations of one-hour or more in length.

Existing Data
Existing Qualtrics data, American College Health Association (ACHA) Healthy Campus 2020 Objectives, and ACHA National College Health Assessment reference group and campus reports are among the data sources utilized for data analysis.

Analysis of Results
Data reviews related to changes in knowledge, behavioral intentions and identified needs are conducted to analyze data. HPEC activity logs and data collection dates can be used to disaggregate data allowing for comparisons among Quick Facts participant subpopulations.

Use of Results
Results are discussed among HPEC and appropriate Student Health Center staff in order to assess, and modify where applicable, presentation content and evaluate student’s intent in applying health-enhancing information and skills to their daily lives. Results will also be shared with appropriate committees that HPEC staff are members of, (e.g., Assessment Committee, Basic Needs Committee). Health educators review result analyses, existing data (e.g., Healthy Campus 2020 Objectives), current federal and state laws, and other information to inform its programs, activities and services. Appropriate modifications are implemented where indicated.Results will be shared with the Student Life Assessment Council.
