PROGRAM ASSESSMENT (2012: YEAR ONE) PROGRAM OUTCOMES: The CSN political science program plans to amend its current three learning outcomes to the following: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, the Nevada Constitution, the role of the various branches of government, America s diverse political values and beliefs, political parties, interest groups, the electoral process, and the development of our civil liberties and rights. The course to be used to assess this objective will be Political Science 101 (Introduction to American Politics). Analyze and compare domestic politics within each of several diverse countries, including analysis of various types of political systems and institutions, political actors, political culture, the impact of ethnic and religious diversity within countries, and competing political and economic ideologies. The course to be used for assessing this objective will be Political Science 211 (Introduction to Comparative Politics). Explore and evaluate competing theoretical approaches to international relations, including an analysis of arguable causes and consequences of war, real-world political relations between nations, relations between regions of the world, the role of diverse international actors, and the role of the United States in world politics. The course to be used for assessing this objective will be Political Science 231 (Introduction to International Relations). Examine major political theories and philosophies and explain how they informed the American Founder s ideas and reforms that have transpired over time. The course to be used to assess this objective will be Political Science 200 (Introduction to Political Theory). ASSESSMENT METHOD: Essay exams, research papers and other written assignments produced by PSCdeclared majors will be copied by instructors and collected. They will then be reviewed by a committee made up of PSC full-time faculty who are appointed in consultation between the lead faculty and the department chair. The committee members will independently determine whether the materials as a whole indicate that each of the respective learning outcomes have been met according to the following ratings: meets standards, exceeds standards or does not meet standards.

The written assignments from those students will be copied by the instructors and collected. They will then be reviewed by the same committee performing the program assessment. The committee members will independently determine whether the materials for each course as a whole indicate whether each of the respective learning outcomes for the course has been met according to the following ratings: meets standards, exceeds standards or does not meet standards. The lead faculty will then prepare a summary report to be shared with the department chair and full-time political science faculty and reported to the college assessment office.

Essay exams and term paper assignments from the selected students will be copied by the instructors and collected.
