Assessment Plan

The effectiveness of the “Living in Balance: Physical Activity” QEP will be evaluated based on data collected on the two targeted student learning outcomes:

  1. Students will achieve and maintain a level-3 cardiorespiratory fitness rank while at Southern Adventist University.
  2. Students will achieve and maintain the American College of Sports Medicine recommendations for cardiorespiratory activity.

Table 12 (pg. 35 of the Living in Balance: Physical Activity document) shows the assessment timeline for each student learning outcome. The timeline is based on the four-year course requirement sequence for baccalaureate-degree students and indicates the scheduled time for each assessment.
