Assessment Analysis
Last year, students were assessed in Law 16 on the ethics case study at 85%, and this year they improved to a 91% level. Again, the fact that we require students to read, and re-read the ethics and critical thinking materials at the beginning of each semester in each class, demonstrates that students with the content, information and practice in using these materials in every class have brought about a marked improvement in critical thinking skills and in analyzing the ethics case study.
