2 Interior Design Report Sophomore Portfolio Assessment Spring 2006 I. Introduction The Interior Design department assessed sophomore portfolios in spring 2006 to help determine which students would be certified into the major. This assessment also supports work towards accreditation from Interior Design s professional accrediting body (FIDER) and WSU s regional accrediting body. II. Goals and Outcomes The Interior Design faculty aspires to be one of the top 3 programs in the United States. Through the department s recognition of the significance of WSU s strategic plan, and accreditation requirements from its professional accrediting body (FIDER) and WSU s regional accrediting body, the faculty has identified a single, comprehensive outcome. Graduates of this program will possess the knowledge and skills necessary to successfully enter and engage the profession of interior design as entry-level designers. The faculty has identified the following 6 critical outcomes essential for students to achieve the aforementioned goal. Performance Criteria. Define problems as it relates to the field of Interior Design 2. Understand the meaning and impact of design as it relates to human interaction, technology, theoretical frameworks, and interdisciplinary efforts 3. Analyze information, evaluate issues, and set priorities 4. Explore and generate creative solutions via a systematic and coordinated design process that integrates functional and aesthetic concerns. Justify and defend design solutions as it relates to socio-economic and global issues 6. Convey intent in a professional manner appropriate to the audience 2
3 III. Assessment Procedures and Methods Overview As outlined in the 2006 Interior Design Assessment Plan, the portfolio review process is the central method for assessing student achievement in Interior Design. In particular, the sophomore portfolio is used as a mechanism for identifying students who meet departmental standards and can therefore be certified into the major. In Spring 2006, 30 sophomore portfolios were evaluated using the instrument developed by Interior Design and attached as Appendix A. The 6 point scale was an absolute scale, with high end scores equal to the expected competence of students at graduation and success in the profession. The threshold for passing sophomore portfolios was 2, with scores given in.2 increments. Thus, a rater who scored a portfolio with a 2 had determined that the work demonstrated competency necessary for the student to enter the Interior Design major as a junior. Portfolios were independently evaluated by two faculty members from Interior Design from the Spokane and Pullman campuses. Students set up their portfolio in a classroom, and reviewers moved through the room assessing student work; individually, reviewers engaged students in a discussion regarding the portfolio as an additional means of gaining data for assessment, particularly the student s ability to communicate design intent with the appropriate design terminology. Afterwards, reviewers met to reach consensus on the overall determination for each portfolio, Pass or Fail. When there was disagreement, sections of that student s portfolio were evaluated by a third rater. (Two portfolios were evaluated by only one rater due to lack of time.) Reliability Faculty agreed that the double review process similar to that used by the Educational Testing Services [ would be appropriate for establishing and monitoring inter-rater reliability. Further, by adopting the rigor embodied in the double review approach faculty establish expert validity in the assessment process. To establish reliability validity, raters participated in a norming session, rating a portfolio based on the scoring criteria and then negotiating a consensus on how the criteria would be applied. IV. Findings. Overall performance. The overall pass rate was 30%. (See Figure ) o 9 out of 30 sophomore portfolios passed, reaching the 2 level and giving those students admission into the interior design major. o 2 out of 30 sophomores did not reach the 2 level, meaning those students were not eligible to continue in interior design. 3

5 2. Inter-rater reliability. Reviewers were 76% consistent in their overall ratings of Pass or Fail, according to the ETS method of calculating the percentage of overall agreement which establishes reliability. In general, ETS scores of 80% or higher are considered reliable. (See Figure 6) 3. Student performance by dimension. Student performance was low in all dimensions; the range of average scores is limited, and not statistically significant. (See figures 2- below) o For each of the three constructs, Design Fundamentals, Interior Design, and Communication, average scores were below the pass rate of 2. o Highest average scores (.9) were found in 2-D design elements and in verbal communication. o Lowest average scores (.84.86) were found in color, function and aesthetics, presentation methods Figure 2 Student performance in 3 constructs Overall Construct Averages Average of Student Scores Construct Construct 2 Construct 3 Construct Dimensions

Discussion and Next Steps Based on this data, the overall performance of sophomores seeking admission to the Interior Design major remains below the competency level established by the program. Preparing students to succeed in their sophomore portfolio has consequences for design of individual courses and course sequences and scaffolding within the program (syllabus, assignments, and activities), particularly in the 00 and 200 level courses. In that light, and to further strengthen the Interior Design program, CTLT advises the following steps:. As a department, answer key questions about the evaluation process and the implications of the current results on course design, assignment design, formative feedback, and instructional practices in 00 and 200 level courses, including: a. How does the program currently prepare students for their sophomore portfolio and evaluation? How could the program better prepare them, providing formative feedback prior to this high stakes review? b. Should the portfolio assessment results serve a purely summative purpose of admitting or denying students entry into the major, or should it formalize the formative aspect with additional opportunities for review or a formal appeals process? c. Should students who do not pass the portfolio review be allowed to use the feedback formatively, and resubmit their portfolios? 7
8 d. Should faculty rate the sophomore portfolios of their own students? e. The discrepancies between the written comments made on sophomore portfolios often offering encouragement and the low scores on criteria suggest additional calibration of program expectations will be useful. 2. Adopt the revised 7-point rubric ( Guide for Rating Program Outcomes INTERIOR DESIGN ), attached as Appendix B, and formalize weighting of the various criteria used in the portfolio review, including the Process evaluation done prior to the formal portfolio presentations. a. Provide faculty with the opportunity to norm using the rubric prior to assessing student portfolios, to increase reliability. b. Clarify the conditions under which a portfolio will be rated by a third person. c. Invite outside professionals to give input on criteria. 3. Using the rubric, integrate assessment criteria into the design and evaluation of assignments at all levels in this program, including 00 and 200 level courses. For example: a. Use the Interior Design rubric more overtly in instruction and as a guide for grading. Specifically, include the program goals and the rubric in course syllabi and link it to assignments. b. Reserve some class time, preferably at the beginning and middle of the semester, for norming sessions with students to maximize students ability to understand and apply the rubric. (CTLT designers are available to provide support for this activity as well.) c. Create assignments in 00 and 200 level Interior Design courses which require students to give one another feedback using the rubric, and offer students opportunities to revise work after receiving feedback from peers and/or faculty; this should begin with the earliest courses taken to help students develop familiarity and move toward competency in the key areas for the sophomore portfolio. d. Require that students attach a rubric-referenced self-assessment to key assignments in 00 and 200 level courses. e. Monitor the use of rubric in Interior Design classes to guide ongoing refinement of rubric and assignments. f. Review and refine first and second year assignments using the rubric. Solicit faculty reflections on strategies for revising assignments and refining their sequence and scaffolding. (These reflections are invaluable evidence of quality enhancement essential for accreditation as well as program improvement.) g. Make other modifications to the design and sequence of key assignments based on department answers and policy decisions in connection with questions posed in Recommendation above. h. Continue to strengthen the alignment between assignments and the outcomes/criteria. (CTLT designers are available to provide support in syllabus and assignment design.) 4. Using the new rubric, identify patterns of weakness in sophomore portfolios and concrete methods to address them; for example, if writing is a constraint, a plan for additional systematic work can be developed in conjunction with the Writing Program or CTLT. 8
9 . Move toward use of Sharepoint e-portfolios to support the portfolio process throughout a student s four years in interior design, especially to provide essential and timely formative feedback prior to sophomore portfolio review and to document the evaluation of portfolios and the outcomes assessment process. 6. Work with CTLT to guide mapping of existing program criteria to the Six Learning Goals of the Baccalaureate. VII. Appendices A. Evaluation tool used through Spring 2006 B.
