Description: The PLO/CLO Direct Assessment Analysis report provides the user with a high-level view of whether their students are meeting the outcome assessment goals set at the Course learning outcome level aggregated by outcome in for the selected term(s) by Course or by Course Section. There are three types of results you may generate from this report:
CLO Assessment Results: Generate a report on the results of Course Learning Outcomes (CLO) assessed within a Course or Course Section that are NOT mapped to a Program Learning Outcome (PLO) in a Program.
PLO Assessment Results: Generate a report on the the results of Course Learning Outcomes assessed within a Course or Course Section that ARE mapped to a Program Learning Outcome in a Program.
Both: Generate a report that includes assessment results for Course Learning Outcomes which are mapped to Program Learning Outcomes in a Program AND the Course Learning Outcomes that are assessed exclusive of inclusion in a Program's curriculum map.
Applicable to: Institution Admin, College Admin, Department Admin, Program Coordinator, Course Coordinator
Assessment Type: Both Course Learning Outcome AND Program Learning Outcome Assessment.

Reading the Report Results
In the report above, the option to view CLO Results only was selected for the Course ENGR 205. The results columns are:
- College: College that owns the Course
- Department: Department that owns the Course
- Program: If the CLO is mapped to a PLO, the corresponding Program name will display here
- Course: Course information
- Course Outcome: The CLO that was assessed
- # Assessed: Number of assessments on that outcome in the course/course section. So the number 10 displayed could mean that either 5 students were assessed on that outcome twice, or 10 students were assessed on that outcome once.
- Rubrics: This is where your students fell on the Proficiency Scale in the results for this outcome. There is a small key below the graph indicating the levels of your Course Learning Outcome or Program Learning Outcome Proficiency Scale.
- Success: This indicates the percentage of students assessed who met the proficiency scale level that was set as a Goal for that Course.
- Performance Goal: This will display the performance goal set within a Program for Program Learning Outcomes when the selected parameter is PLO Outcomes Only or Both, if that result type is selected.
