Student Learning Outcomes
The San Diego City College Math Department has developed the following student learning outcomes. (SLOs)

Developmental Math Program

• Students will increase their knowledge and usage of on-campus resources.
• Students will be placed into the appropriate math course.
• Students will perform computations without the use of technology.
  
• Students will translate word problems into mathematical expressions or equations.
• Students will solve equations properly, logically, and with written explanations.

Transfer Level Math Program

The transfer level SLO’s are currently being developed.

 

Pre and post tests were administered in Math 35 sections in Fall 2008 to assess SLOs. The results are summarized as follows based on the results of 112 students.

• Pre-test mean = 3.241
• Post-test mean= 5.214
• 14 students showed a decrease
• 15 students had the same score
• 83 students showed an increase
