Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) Project

 

The University of Wyoming is participating in a four-year longitudinal study sponsored by the Lumina Foundation and the Council for Aid to Education using the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA) to assess student learning.

In 2005-06 (1st study year), we recruited 276 freshmen to participate. These students were administered the three hour assessment in two parts (performance tasks and writing prompts) during fall semester. In addition, 125 seniors were recruited to take one of the two parts of the CLA during spring semester before graduation.

The next step in our longitudinal study is to retest at minimum of 200 students from our freshmen cohort. This second round of assessment testing will take place in spring 2007.
