The assessment of learning outcomes in GE is proceeding category by category. The first category assessed was Category I: Writing. Assessment of both lower-division and upper-division writing courses was carried out by the Office of the Campus Writing Coordinator, in conjunction with the DUE Assessment, Research & Evaluation Group, from the 2008-2009 through 2010-2011 academic years.

The Academic Senate Assessment Committee has approved a procedure for assessing the remaining GE categories that involves three stages, and takes into account the need to educate faculty on the GE course level learning outcomes.
