We have a pre/post test that we give that we developed in-house based on our outcomes. We developed it because our assessment group really wanted something very objective included in the mix of our assessment. Ours is not normed - we have only given it twice and are still working on it. The best thing to do would be to ask everyone who teaches to submit a few MC questions related to their course that would match the objectives they cover in that class.

My school, like all the others, is obsessed with assessment (sounds like a poem title by e.e. cummings, doesn't it?). I was wondering if anyone out there does a pre- posttest assessment of psych graduates? My chair is wanting to start something like that b/c we now have a 1-credit introduction to the major class when they declare. We want to give them the pretest in the majors class then a posttest during their senior assessment class. What do they know b/4 the major and what do they know after? Anybody got any tests already written (and maybe normed) we could use?
