Welcome to Assessment at Highline

Assessment is the process of identifying how well students are meeting the student learning outcomes, reflecting on our instructional strategies, and planning methods to improve both student learning and our teaching methods.

Managed by the faculty-led Assessment Committee, assessment of student learning is an ongoing process and involves all members of the Highline community.

Continuous assessment activities allow us to identify what our students are learning, and whether our teaching strategies are working. With that information we can adapt and improve our teaching techniques.

Documenting our assessment activities and sharing them with others on campus helps us all improve our teaching methods. This process can promote further conversations within departments, leading to informed curricular decisions.

It is important to note that assessment is also reflected in important work of Student Services.
