Abstract

This paper emerged during the process of continuous quality improvement of an introductory course on occupational safety and health. Did the students correctly associate an assessment activity to the right course outcome? The paper compared the evaluation of the students and the facilitator on the different activities used to assess the demonstration of abilities/outcomes attributed with the course. There were two activities per quarter of the semester. Each activity had been scheduled to demonstrate specific outcome indicators by the facilitator and is described in detail. An evaluation questionnaire was provided at the end of the semester to ascertain whether the students assessed the same outcome indicator as what course the set for each activity. The contention was to harmonize what outcomes the students believed they are exhibiting and what outcomes the course had intended for such activity. The gathered data from the evaluation questionnaire were tabulated and then compared with the original intended outcomes by the facilitator. Interpretation of the data was also forwarded and the path for continuous quality improvement was drawn. © 2020 IEEE.
