Development And Validation

Abstract –This paper describes the process for creating and validating descriptors for a universal problem-analysis rubric. Our objective is to create descriptors that provide effective feedback to students on assessments that have been designed to elicit the demonstration of metacognitive problem-analysis skills.  Building on previously tested and validated indicators as well as benchmarking descriptors from credible and cited rubrics (e.g. the VALUE rubrics), the descriptors were developed through decomposition of global outcome statements and expansion into separate dimensions. The descriptors were then iteratively revised through consultation with faculty experts who teach in fields where assessment of problem-analysis is common. This involved individual faculty and focus group sessions held with engineering faculty members.  The universal problem-analysis rubric created could serve as a resource for engineering faculty to accompany their problem-analysis learning activities (e.g. problem sets) and to elicit student work that is aligned with learning outcomes students need to demonstrate to fulfill CEAB assessment needs. They could also use them as an evaluation tool to increase consistency and reliability of evaluation especially in large classes with multiple assessors.

Rubric Development

The shift towards outcomes-based assessment in higher education has necessitated the exploration and development of valid measurement tools. Given this trend, the current project seeks to develop a set of generic analytic rubrics for the purpose of assessing learning outcomes in the core competency areas of design, communication, teamwork, problem analysis and investigation. This paper will provide an update on the original paper presented at CEEA 2015, in which the approach to rubric development for communication, design and teamwork was discussed. The current paper will detail the process of testing the communication, design and teamwork rubrics. In particular, it will report on the progress achieved in shadow testing, where teaching assistants and/or course instructors with grading experience (“assessors”) are asked to evaluate samples of student work using selected rows from the rubrics. The results of shadow testing will be presented.

Survey Results

Introduction: This study aimed to explore pharmacy students' and faculty members' perception of online learning at the Faculty of Pharmacy Universitas Andalas. Methods: A survey was administered to 522 undergraduate students, 140 pharmacist professional students, and 51 faculty members via an online electronic survey (Google Forms). Demographic data, online learning experiences, and online learning acceptance of students and faculty members were collected through the survey. Results: Five hundred forty-five students and 36 faculty members of the Faculty of Pharmacy Universitas Andalas participated in this study. Online learning was mostly delivered using Zoom, combined with other media (47.3%). The majority of faculty members and students agreed that online learning could achieve knowledge learning outcomes (LOs), but not attitude LOs and skills LOs. More than a half of students and faculty members perceived that online learning is less effective. Conclusion: In general, the faculty members and students perceived that online learning was not very effective and only considered to achieve some aspects of LOs. As the COVID-19 pandemic is not over yet, it seems that online learning is the reasonable option for conducting learning activities. However, the learning activities and media should be carefully selected to ensure the achievement of all aspects of LOs.

Aim/Purpose: In this study, the researchers investigated whether the out-of-class learning approach could help the students to attain any valuable learning outcomes for cybersecurity learning and could enhance the perceived value of cybersecurity education among the students. Background: Cybersecurity learning poses challenges for its students to learn a complicated subject matter and the students may be intimidated by the challenging courses in cybersecurity programs. Therefore, it is essential for the faculty members to devise some mechanisms to promote cybersecurity learning to increase its student retention. The mechanism suggested by this study was the out-of-class learning approach. Methodology: The researchers in this study employed a content analysis and adopted a semiotic method to analyze qualitative data. The researchers also conducted crosstabulation analyses using chi-square tests to detect the significant differences in the emerging learning outcomes from the two different out-of-class learning activities investigated in this study. Contribution: This study addressed the difficulty of cybersecurity education and proposed a viable mechanism to promote the student learning in such a complicated subject matter. Findings: For cybersecurity education, the out-of-class learning approach is a viable pedagogical mechanism that could lead the students to several learning outcomes, including connecting them to the real-life scenarios related to the cybersecurity profession, guiding them to their career choices and development, stimulating their intellectual growth, creating their justification of learning, and raising their cybersecurity awareness. Recommendations for Practitioners: The instructors of any cybersecurity programs should incorporate some out-of-class learning activities into the courses in their programs, especially the introductory-level courses. Additionally, it is important to coordinate the out-of-class learning activities with the in-class lessons to enable the students to justify what they have learned in their classrooms and motivate them to learn more. Recommendation for Researchers: Researchers could look beyond in-class learning and laboratory learning to investigate the impacts of out-of-class learning activities on cybersecurity education to help the students to attain better learning outcomes. Impact on Society: By promoting cybersecurity education, universities and colleges could attain a higher retention rate of the students in their cybersecurity programs. The higher retention rate of the students in cybersecurity programs would help to ease the critical shortage of cybersecurity talent. Future Research: Future research could explore the impacts of other out-of-class learning activities on cybersecurity learning; for example: job shadowing, attending cybersecurity conferences, internship, developing cybersecurity systems or tools for actual customers, working on cybersecurity research with faculty members. Additionally, future studies could investigate the effects of the out-of-class learning approach on promoting other academic programs that are characterized by intensely complex and technical nature, similar to cybersecurity programs.
