Abstract

This paper presented a two-year experience of assessing college students' use of information from different resources, including the methods, processes, instruments, results and some issues of the assessment. The assessment processes started from analyzing the goals of learning, defining the outcomes, then selecting or developing instruments, and the last, collecting data and analyzing results. A "qualitative-and-quantitative" (Q-Q) assessment package was developed and used, where we used portfolios to record the learning process and quantitative scores to measure the learning of specific skills. The Q-Q assessment procedures were employed into six classes during the past two years. This experience suggested that assessing the use of information and technology related outcome was a process rather than some one-time tests. The Q-Q procedures also provided a structure to develop an assessment model that should apply to other fields of information technology assessment.
