1 Guidelines for Assessment Plan Report ( ) For each annual assessment plan, programs should submit a short narrative report (2-3 pages plus appendices) to the school assessment coordinator on or before January 1. The report should be submitted to the school assessment coordinator as a Microsoft WORD document with a file name that identifies the year and the program, example (PTAYearAssessmentReport.docx). The school assessment coordinator will either sign off on the report or return it to the program assessment coordinator for revision and strengthening. Once approved at the school level, the report will be converted to pdf format and forwarded to the CSN Director of Assessment and Accreditation. The report format is shown below. Date Submitted: February 19, 2015 School: Engelstad School of Health Sciences Program: Pharmacy Technician Program Report Format Person(s) responsible for the design and implementation of assessment plan and writing the report: Cheryll Carlock-Arinwine 1. Project Overview and Assessment Goals A. List the program Learning Outcome(s) that the plan is assessing. Outcome 1: Demonstrate broad competency in pharmacy techniques and procedures, pharmaceutical math, and pharmacology. Outcome 2: Demonstrate the relevant skills and competency necessary for licensure as a Nevada State Pharmacy Technician. Outcome 4: Demonstrate effective and ethical pharmacy practice techniques in accordance with defined state, federal, and professional industry guidelines and legal parameters. B. Provide a brief description of the plan and the assessment question(s) being addressed. Outcome 1: (Question) Did the fall 2013 cohort demonstrate broad competency in pharmacy techniques and procedures, pharmaceutical math, and pharmacology? This competency is assessed via a pre-clinical placement assessment examination. Outcomes 2 & 4: (Question) Did the fall 2013 cohort demonstrate the relevant skills and competency necessary for licensure as a Nevada State Pharmacy Technician? Did the fall 2013 cohort demonstrate effective and ethical pharmacy practice techniques in accordance with defined state, federal, and professional industry guidelines and legal parameters? These two outcomes are assessed via three (3) clinical competency rubric evaluations: Inpatient Pharmacy, I.V. Room, and Retail.
2 C. If this report does not correspond to the most recent program assessment plan sent to the school assessment coordinator please submit a copy of the revised plan along with this report. This report does not correspond directly with the most recent program assessment plan (see Assessment Plan, Appendix A). Student learning outcomes were revised to assess higher cognitive domain levels and to create more direct assessment measures of student learning outcomes. D. Indicate when the outcome(s) were assessed and what conclusions were reached from the previous assessment, and what closing the loop changes, if any, were made based on those conclusions. Also indicate whether the assessment method used previously is the same as the one described in this report. If not, what is changed? Outcome 1: Assessment Instrument: PHAR 126B Pre-Placement Assessment Examination; spring 2014 Conclusion: 2 of 2 students took the assessment and passed. Changes: No changes needed at this time. The assessment examination will be reviewed for any needed updates and/or revisions during the academic year. Outcomes 2 & 4: Assessment Instrument: Inpatient, I.V. Room, and Retail rubric evaluations Conclusion: 2 of 2 students were assessed on all three measures. One student passed with 100% competency overall on all three rubric evaluations. The second student passed with an 85% competency rating overall. This student s greatest area of deficit appeared to be in time management of retail tasks. Changes: Program faculty met to discussion ways to implement timed skills assessment in laboratory course PHAR 101L. Timed skills assessments will be introduced during the academic year. 2. Project Design and Coherence A. Identify the student product(s) used for direct assessment of the Learning Outcome(s) that you listed in 1.A. Explain the context for this product [course name(s) and number(s), place in curriculum, instructor(s), and so forth). NOTE: If your project depends on anonymity, report only contextual information that doesn t need to be anonymous. If the project focused on a single or common assignment, please attach the assignment handout or explanation in the syllabus as an appendix. Outcome 1: Course: PHAR 126B - Pharmacy Technician Practicum (2 nd semester course), fall 2014 Instructors: Cheryll Carlock-Arinwine and Lorinda Trinidad-Lohner Context: Pre-Placement Assessment Exam conducted by Cheryll Carlock-Arinwine Outcomes 2 & 4: Course: PHAR 126B - Pharmacy Technician Practicum (2 nd semester course), fall 2014 Instructors: Cheryll Carlock-Arinwine and Lorinda Trinidad-Lohner Context: Rubric evaluations conducted clinical site preceptors.
3 B. Explain how the student product was scored and by whom [for example, objective scoring by machine; course instructor using a rubric; judging panel using a rubric] If the project used a rubric, please explain who created the rubric and attach it as an appendix. Outcome 1: The PHAR 126B Pre-Placement Assessment is a 100-question assessment instrument, comprised of questions related to course content in: PHAR 100B - Introduction to Pharmacy Practice, PHAR 101B - Pharmacy Techniques, PHAR 105B - Pharmaceutical Math for Technicians, and PHAR 110B - Pharmacology I. The examination also consists of various questions designed to assess students mastery of the Top 200 drugs learned. All examination questions, excluding the Top 200 drug assessment questions, were drawn from textbook publisher s test bank items. The Top 200 drug assessment questions are developed by the Program Director from industry drug lists; which are updated every two years in accordance with industry standards. Outcomes 2 &4: The clinical rubric evaluations (inpatient, I.V. Room, and Retail) were developed by the Program Director, and are evaluated for updates/revisions every two years; with input from program faculty and clinical site evaluators. Evaluation scores are recorded for each student by clinical site preceptors who mentor, monitor, and supervise each student throughout the duration of their hands-on clinical skills training. Competencies are evaluated on a 5-point scale (1=lowest, 5= highest). C. Explain the fit or match between the program Learning Outcome(s) being assessed and the student product used as a direct measure. In other words, how fully does the quality of the product reveal achievement of the learning objective? [Sometimes there may be a one-to-one correspondence between the learning objective and the product. At other times, only some features of the product are relevant to the learning objective. In such cases, the learning objective might be assessed only by one or two rows of a rubric or by a few selected questions on an exam.] Outcome 1: Demonstrate broad competency in pharmacy techniques and procedures, pharmaceutical math, and pharmacology. The PHAR 126B Pre-Placement Assessment Exam directly measures students knowledge of broad pharmacy concepts and content. The assessment also directly assesses students technical competence in pharmaceutical math. The assessment exam indirectly assesses students levels of procedural skill. Outcomes 2 & 4: Demonstrate the relevant skills and competency necessary for licensure as a Nevada State Pharmacy Technician; Demonstrate effective and ethical pharmacy practice techniques in accordance with defined state, federal, and professional industry guidelines and legal parameters. The rubric evaluations (Inpatient, I.V. Room, and Retail) directly assess the ability of the students to perform essential clinical functions, to include assisting the Pharmacist in providing appropriate, effective, and safe pharmaceutical care; prescription processing; dosage calculations; evaluating and filling prescriptions/medication orders; inventory management; and medication delivery (see Appendix B). D. Explain how program faculty defined achievement terms (example: minimally competent, proficient, aspiring, satisfactory etc.) for the learning objective and how they distinguished between the levels of achievement (criteria). If the project used a rubric, does the rubric clearly indicate these categories and specify the corresponding criteria? If not, explain how rubric scores correspond to these categories. If program faculty haven t yet defined terms and criteria for achievement of the learning objective(s), how and when do you plan to do so?
4 Outcome 1: Achievement for this outcome is clearly defined by a passing threshold score of 70% or higher on the PHAR 126B Pre-Placement Assessment Examination. Outcomes 2 & 4: Achievement for these two learning outcomes is defined by ASHP professional guidelines, state and federal legislation, as well as, industry standards. A 5-point rubric scale is clearly defined. E. If your project used a rubric, did program faculty try to establish inter-rater reliability in the use of the rubric? If so, explain how. If not, explain why. Outcome 1: N/A Outcomes 2 & 4: Yes, inter-rater reliability is used in the development, modification, and updating of program rubric evaluations (Inpatient, I.V. Room, and Retail). Program faculty meets bi-annually, at the end of each semester, to evaluate necessary assessment revisions and/or updates. Clinical preceptor feedback and input is also solicited and contributed accordingly. 3. Project Methods Narrate how the project was conducted. Who did what when? Outcome 1: The Pre-Placement assessment is administered by Cheryll Carlock-Arinwine to second semester students in the program, in course PHAR 126B. Outcome 2 & 4: Students are assessed via rubric assessments. The Inpatient and I.V. Room rubric evaluations are completed by clinical site preceptors, working in local area hospitals, who monitor, supervise, and evaluate students progressively over a duration of 200 clinical training hours. Retail rubric evaluations are completed by clinical site preceptors, working in local community-based retail pharmacies, who supervise and evaluate program students over the duration of 120 clinical training hours. 4. Project Results Report your results as a table or chart showing the number of student products evaluated and the distribution of performances across the quality categories shown in your rubric or across the continuum of objective scores. Particularly highlight the percentage of performances meeting your program s aspirational goals and the percentage failing to meet minimal standards. Outcome 1:
5 Outcomes 2 & 4: 5. Discussion of Results This section of your report is central to the assessment process and therefore essential to the assessment report. Explain what program faculty learned through their analysis of the results. Discuss results from the perspective of both summative and formative assessment. Summative assessment: To what extent are program faculty members satisfied with these results? Why or why not? Formative assessment: what problem areas or patterns of weakness were uncovered? How might these problem areas be addressed through changes in pedagogy, course or assignment design, or sequencing of instruction? If the outcome(s) have been previously assessed, what changes in student performance have been revealed? Outcome 1: The student success rate for this outcome was 100%; 2 of 2 students took this assessment; and passed with a threshold score of 70% or higher. Outcome 2 & 4: The student success rate for these two outcomes was 100%. 2 of 2 students were assessed on Inpatient (100% pass rate), I.V. Room (100% pass rate), and Retail (100% pass rate) competencies. Each student exceeded the minimum competency proficiency threshold of 70%. 6. Closing the loop actions What follow-up actions do program faculty plan to take next as a result of this project? You might decide to institute changes, to decide no changes are needed, or to gather more data. Typically, your action plan will fall into one of the following categories. Choose the most appropriate. A. If your assessment data suggest changes that might improve student learning, what changes will you make? (Changes might include new assignments, shifts in pedagogy, closing of gaps in the curriculum, improved scaffolding, more effective sequencing, and so forth.) How and when will you try to assess whether the changes were helpful? N/A
6 B. If the assessment data suggest that no changes are needed, what follow-up action is planned for the continued assessment of student performance in relation to this outcome (for example, in other assignments, courses, or areas of the curriculum)? Although the assessment data has not suggested that changes were needed, the program s student learning outcomes have been revised to assess for higher student cognitive domain abilities and to create more direct assessment measures of student learning outcomes, in accordance with the college s newly revised assessment standards (see Appendix A). C. If the assessment data are not conclusive enough to make sound decisions about changes, what action will you take either to refine assessment results or gather the additional data necessary for further deliberation? Describe the plan and time table for this additional information gathering. N/A 7. Project ownership To what extent were all program faculty involved in this project s discussion and analysis? When, how, and by whom were assessment findings discussed and decisions made about appropriate actions to take in relation to these findings? The Program Director reviewed and discussed the findings and outcomes for the AY assessment with program faculty, in spring The discussion also included the implementation of timed skills assessment in PHAR 101L; to enhance students time management skills. Program faculty will again meet at the end of spring 2015 to finalize drafting a learning outcome assessment matrix, relative to the newly revised student learning outcomes being implemented AY
