Abstract

The Co-op program is a graduation requirement for all majors in RIT Dubai. Just like any course, Co-op has also learning programs that is different from one major to another. The academic departments ensure that those learning programs are being achieved throughout the co-op duration that the student goes for to complete the requirement. By end of each co-op duration, the student completes a student evaluation form which consists of questions that are supposedly related to the learning outcomes of the academic program. At the same time, also the employer evaluation which needs to be filled by the employer, includes questions that are related to the learning outcomes of the academic program. Faculty advisors assess whether the student has actually achieved and applied the learning outcomes during their Co-op duration based on the results of the student and employer evaluation answers of the questions. If the mapping tends to be wrong between the questions of the evaluations and the learning outcomes, does this mean that the past assessments were false? In this project, the mapping of how similar the questions of the evaluation are to the learning outcomes will be tested to verify the accuracy of the academic departments reports and assessments.
