Instructors, Welcome to the SALG Website!
** Beta Version **
We are in the process of implementing improvements (e.g., a wizard for creating instruments) based on early feedback from users. Please send your comments and suggestions to help@salgsite.org, and look for the improved site early in 2009!
The Student Assessment of their Learning Gains (SALG) website allows instructors to gather learning-focused feedback from students. The SALG survey asks students to rate how each component of a course (e.g., textbook, collaborative work, labs) helped them to learn, and to rate their gains toward achieving the course goals. The SALG survey can be customized to fit any college-level course, and can be administered multiple times per course. A baseline instrument allows faculty to compare gains relative to incoming student characteristics.
Once registered on the SALG site, you can:
- customize the SALG survey to fit your course goals and methods;
- search for an existing SALG survey in your discipline;
- have students complete the survey on-line; and,
- download and review analyses of the students' responses.
