IAE Online Reports
The Instructional Assessment and Evaluation (IAE) group
of DIIA produces five kinds of study reports: Credit-by-Exam studies,
Evaluation studies, Literature Reviews, Research studies, and Standard-setting
studies.
Credit-by-Exam studies- report the number of credit by exam scores
(AP, IB, CLEP, UT Austin tests, etc.) students submit when entering
the University of Texas. These annual reports also examine scores by
exam type, college of the course, number of credits awarded, and trends
over time.
Evaluation studies- instructional evaluations of classroom instruction,
academic programs, or instructional technology that includes conclusions
and recommendations.
Literature reviews- summary interpretations of research findings
in published
literature on a particular topic.
Research studies - focus on the use of quasi-experimental methods
and secondary data analysis to understand educational topics.
Standard-setting studies- determine what qualifying scores on locally
developed placement or credit-by-examination tests are needed to place
students out of a course and/or award course credit.
Reports are in Adobe PDF format.
Adobe Acrobat Reader is required to open them.
