CT as WASC competency

As part of the first stage of the accreditation redesign process approved by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) Commission in November, 2011, member institutions will be expected to demonstrate that their graduates have achieved levels of proficiency in five competencies:   written and oral communication, quantitative skills, critical thinking and information literacy.

In response to rising expectations for accountability and student achievement, critical thinking is now an important college level learning outcome.  Insight Assessment critical thinking testing tools can provide the data and external reference points needed to document educational effectiveness.
