Mānoa Academic Assessment Council
Charge
The Mānoa Academic Assessment Council (MAAC) was established by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs (OVCAA) to create a team of faculty specialists with experience developing assessment programs in their own departments and colleges, who come from disciplines that make extensive use of psychometric practices, and who understand theory, experimental design, and data analysis. The council was charges with overseeing various aspects of the University’s assessment efforts. Specifically the council serves in three primary capacities: as liaisons to departments and colleges in need of assessment help; as reviewers of departmental assessment efforts; and as designers of our General Education Assessment efforts.
