I might consider doing a quiz as as a more quantitative assessment.

• Demonstrate advanced grammar, sentence structures and vocabulary in writing.
• Evaluate one's own writing for rhetorical structure and clarity by means of revision and editing.
 2022-2023 Spring Face-to-Face Portfolio Review Final Portfolio includes three essays (a take-home, an in-class, a final reflective essay) 5 13 4 3 3 Strong improvements on grammar and writing processes. Weak in-class writing still. Spike in usage of AI writing tech. Outlining and organizing ideas before writing was key for students.  Students could benefit from more focused reading of the textbook; difficult to encourage students to read carefully at home. However, using class time to read is inefficient and redundant for students who already read at home. Needs more interactivity for reading assignments.

 2022-2023 Spring Face-to-Face Exam – Course Test/Quiz  * 3 formal writing assignments (narrative composition, compare & contrast composition, argumentative composition). Two were in-class; one was take-home.
* Students practiced editing and revising their own writing
* Reading exams - combination of multiple choice and short answer response where students were asked to cite evidence from the text as well as connect the reading to their own lived experience.
* Grammar exercises
* Reading Journal - students were asked to summarize and respond to 2 news articles of their choosing		 5 13 6 2 2 This was my first time teaching this class. I'm excited to teach it again next quarter. I now have a better idea of what students are capable of and where they need support. I'd like to incorporate more editing and revision next quarter. I also hope to do more reading reflections (both orally as a class discussion and in Canvas as a writing exericise).

I made it clear to my students in the beginning to reach out to me for any questions and concerns and I believe, answering their communications to me, really made a big difference in their course journey. This is the first quarter students did not fall below a C in this course, which was a great surprise. I also incorporated personal industry-related short videos, which the students found incredibly helpful and engaging. In order to reach the few that fell below expectations (next time) would be to reach out to them a bit more via email communications. There's a fine balance between pushing and adding pressure, so I'd like to learn (myself) how to find that balance for my students who need that added encouragement.

The reason is mostly because of the current culture and the education system with a more relaxed approach especially after the COVID-19. I hope we can change this trend.  This needs a group effort. While many faculty members set no deadlines for assignments, enforcing deadlines in journalism courses becomes more difficult. This makes the class look difficult and contributes to our low enrollment. I hope the standards will grow in our educational system.

Language Arts Communication Studies COMM 7 -01Y 48142 SLO 2: Evaluate and assess his/her own culture-specific verbal and nonverbal communication, through self-reflection and shared feedback. 2022-2023 Spring Hybrid (some Face-to-Face) Other a. In a short paper, students were asked to describe their communication style specific to a culture they belong. They were also asked to identify a communication problem that may occur with another cultural group because of their communication style. Finally, they were asked how they might adapt or address this communication problem.

b. To help students understand various communication styles and adequately answer they prompt, they were asked to read several articles which included items on: Language and Culture, Verbal Communication, High and Low Context Communication, and were provided a handout on Language and Communication Styles.		 31 2 1 3   Upon completion of this activity, I would say I am satisfied with the outcome. There are several small assignments built into the course which require students to reflect on culture specific verbal/nonverbal communication. This assignment provides students an opportunity to really evaluate how they navigate within the world and think about what implications their communication style can have on themselves and others through evaluation and reflection. Students who didn’t meet the outcome simply didn’t submit the work and those that approached the outcome or simply met it didn’t answer the entire prompt. What they did share was correct, but again they failed to answer some items. Something I could change to address this issue would be to change how the directions of the assignment are laid out in Canvas. That could be the reason why they didn’t answer certain portions of the prompt.
