Guidelines for presentation submissions:

The Student Learning Outcomes (SLO) Symposium is an annual event dedicated to building support, fostering networking, and providing solutions for assessing student learning. The expected audience includes faculty and their leaders, SLO coordinators, Guided Pathways coordinators, Equity coordinators, researchers, administrators, research analysts, academic deans, and deans of institutional effectiveness, all from various walks of life throughout higher education.

This year’s Symposium invites presentations for breakout sessions addressing various topics related to the assessment of student learning. Preference will be given to topics focused on Competency-Based Education (CBE), accreditation guidelines, equity, grading, faculty learning communities, record keeping, data analysis, engaging students in meaningful assessment of their learning, and the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the assessment of student learning.

As we come together for the SLO Symposium, an online webinar, let’s embrace the wonderful diversity of our audience. We kindly ask that you ensure your materials meet ADA standards, allowing everyone—whether they have visual, hearing, or other challenges—to participate fully. Let’s create a session where every participant feels involved and valued. Embracing ADA compliance reflects our shared commitment to inclusivity. By providing accessible materials, we not only broaden our reach but also ensure that each participant feels acknowledged and appreciated. Thank you for helping make this a memorable experience for all!
