Pre/Post Test for Career and Job search classTopic:Student Learning Outcomes for a Career Development and Job Search class.Overview:To assess learning, both for instructional purposes and on an individual student level, I find it helpful to have students complete both a pre-test and a post-test. One assessment is given at the beginning of the semester and the identical assessment is again completed at the end of the semester. The questions focus on course contents, such as self-exploration activites, career exploration and job search techniques. The results are used to complete Student Learning Outcomes and, additionally, students compare their pre and post tests as the basis for the final class paper.

Students, particularly international graduate students, often do not know all the details of the field they have chosen to study and the resources available therein. In addition, they when they begin graduate school, they must adjust to the nature of the Western model where knowledge is created and shared within the field of study in a critical-thinking based model. The best way for them to truly enter the conversation of knowledge is to jump in and experience the information as fully as they can. Journals, associations and trade publications all provide a wealth of information - much of it free to students - for them to explore and think through how they want to make a contribution.
