LLS 300: Serves Many Functions
• Introduce major & its requirements
• Have students write their own program of studies
• Introduce students to professional literature on IDS
• Introduce students to IDS terminology and discourse
• Introduce students to IDS methodology:
• Self-exploration & assessment = identification of academic interests and professional goals
• Introduce them to academic research
• Nature of disciplines• Concept of integration• Develop integration skills• Write academic research papers• Establish eFolios

Summary of Findings A : Our Assessment of the Rubric
• Format and Organizational Issues:• Re-oganize ..transfer should be the last criteria—is the
most difficult• Does rubric apply to specific assignment(s) or
holistically?• Course sequence model more applicable than by years
1, 2, 3, 4 (we teach 3 & 4 only)• Glossary of terms needed/rationale for categories• Not designed for an introductory course--more for a
capstone• Suggested another category: Reflection on Self-
Improvement

February 25, 2009 Tanya Augsburg
Summary of Findings A : Our Assessment of the Rubric
Are the criteria weighted?• In intro class “transfer” would have less weight than in a
capstone class• Transfer is problematic: vague –what distinguishes connects,
adapts, synthesizes• Closer alignment between description of transfer and the
application of it• Transfer: may be difficult for introductory students to achieve;
requires deep knowledge• Rubrics need to indicate that students can use visuals: photos,
drawings, etc.• Explanation of how these categories are pertinent to integration

SSummary of Findings B: Our Initial Assessment of LS 300and Student Integrative Learning
• Faculty evaluated three assignments: intellectual autobiography, mission statement, and integrative essay.
• Faculty interpreted integrative essay assignment differently--• Students demonstrated understanding of what is interdisciplinarity• Understood disciplinary perspectives of a complex problem (global
warming)• Students did not demonstrate “well” that they could do integration• Instructors need more clarity regarding what constitutes good
integration versus poor or weak.• LS 300 through eFolios’ integrative skills creates a baseline for
integration.• Instructors will revisit course objectives Spring 2009--will decide
how much integration is to be expected in LS 300.
