15. Summary
ORU is continuing its strong progress in assessment into
new distance programs
Online programs will receive the benefit of:
Prior experience in assessment
New tools
New thinking about reasons and ways to do assessment
Ground-up design of courses and programs for assessment
Assessment integration up, down, and across the curriculum
and organization is possible and practical
Integration of learning styles and intelligence theories into
the assessment model
Very much still a work in progress
