Intervention Courses and Their Impact
SULC has developed an Institutional Course-Level Assessment process, which is used as an internal measure of SULC’s adherence to its Institutional Learning Outcomes and is designed to evaluate each student’s ability to comprehend, analyze and communicate information distributed within SULC’s assessment courses which are embedded in its curriculum. Students are required to complete formative and summative assessments in certain courses each semester in which they are enrolled in school. SULC assesses a student at one of four levels, based on the student’s performance on the summative assessments, each semester. The levels are Beginning, Developing, Accomplished, and Excellent. Any student performing below the Accomplished level will be required to take an Intervention course designed to improve and enhance the student’s skills, improve the student’s performance in law school, and increase the student’s chance of passing a bar exam. Each Intervention course in which a student is required to enroll will increase the number of hours a student needs to graduate by two additional credit hours.
