The program outcome indirect measure value results for 061 and 062 are shown in the following figure:





Figure: Indirect measure values for each program learning outcome based on students survey

It is evident from the above figure that according to the students, all program outcomes have been achieved with a minimum value of 3 in 062. The only exceptions for 061 include Program outcome 5 and Program outcome 9. The reason for the low values in Program outcomes 5 and 9 in 061 was due to Course ICS 334, where its course outcome 4, mapping to program outcome 5, had a low ranking by the students as it seems it has not been well-covered. The course learning outcome in question is "Understand the basics of query processing and optimization, concurrency controls and database recovery". This has been mended in 062. As for course outcome 5 mapping to program outcome 9, it has a zero value as this learning outcome was not surveyed by the instructors. Hence, there is no action taken in this regard, except for ensuring its evaluation by students in 062.


Direct Assessment

The ICS department has conducted two types of direct assessment. The first one relies on the points and grades accumulated by students in all core courses. This has been first advocated by the ABET steering Committee at KFUPM in 061. It has been carried out for both, 061 and 062 semesters. The second one relies on developing a set of rubrics for one or more courses that covers all program learning outcomes. This type of assessment was advocated by the ABET steering committee starting from the second half of 062. However, we were able to carry out the assessment for 061 since all needed documents were available in the department. These assessments are discussed in more details below.



Direct Assessment I: Grade-based Assessment
In grade-based assessment, similar to the Indirect assessment of core courses discussed earlier, each course learning outcome is evaluated based on the assessment methods outlined in each course. Faculty members were required to keep a record of how much each learning outcome has been assessed in the course. This information was explicitly mandated in the course assessment report submitted by the instructor at the end of the semester. Below is an example of this information for ICS 353, Sections 3 and 4 in 062.
