Assessment and Data Management
The School of Education is committed to high-standards and using evidence-based measures of performance to support candidate learning and continuously improve its programs. While the School’s Assessment System organizes these activities, the Conceptual Framework ensures the focus of all work is learner-centered and includes Jesuit ideals and Ignatian Pedagogy. The Assessment Handbook outlines how the School collects and uses data to make decisions. Members of the School and greater stakeholder community are welcomed and encouraged to look through the contents of this site to see how we are all working together to build Competent, Conscientious, and Compassionate teachers, counselors, administrators, and other education professionals.
Assessment Committee:
The Assessment Committee’s mission is to promote an assessment culture characterized by evidence-based decisions, with the intended purpose of providing a more challenging, learner-centered academic community that advances knowledge and improves vitality in all aspects of the Loyola University School of Education.
