Data will continue to be evaluated. A future potential action plan may be to have the clinical preceptors evaluate the
second semester students to obtain more consistent inter-rater reliability. This will be analyzed again next year with
feedback from the clinical preceptors.
Goal I, SLO 2: The results for the second semester students for 2021 did not meet the benchmark of 9.0, but was
extremely close with a score of 8.9. These are very positive since the action plans were implemented in 2016. Review of
the first semester student data show the data consistently exceeding the benchmark, so the benchmark should be
increased to 8.5 from 8.0. This will be implemented fall 2023 with the new incoming students and will continue to be
evaluated.

Action Plan based on Analysis: Increase the benchmark for Goal I, SLO 2 for the first-year students to 8.5 from
8.0.
Re-evaluation Date: Fall 2022 at the next assessment committee meeting.

Results/Improvement(s) noted based on the action plans that were implemented: Goal I, SLO 2 for the second
semester students continues to exceed the benchmark, with the exception of 2016 and 2017 results. It was reiterated that
in 2016, a new process for evaluating students was implemented. Supervising technologists and clinical preceptors attend
a workshop where simulated competencies and evaluations take place. Discussion occurs so evaluators are grading
consistently and providing constructive feedback to the students immediately. Additionally, students were required to
complete more simulations in the laboratory setting prior to attempting in the clinical setting. They are also required to
have a minimum of three completions of an exam before performing a competency examination. This is reinforced by the
department managers who stated the new LXMOs are obtaining excellent radiographs and are comparable to radiography
students.
