AERO supports program improvement by providing assessment data reports to program faculty for review.
AERO creates assessment data reports based on data collected through VIA (known as Student Learning & Licensure (SLL)) by Watermark, an online assessment system, embedded in CEHD Canvas course sections.
Using VIA/SLL through Canvas
Every semester a faculty member teaches a course with an assessment scored through VIA, the faculty member receives email communication from viahelp@gmu.edu that lists each course and its associated assessments, along with extensive instructions and support on how to set up their VIA links in their Canvas course.
Reminders to faculty who do not complete their assessment scores in a timely manner are sent by viahelp@gmu.edu.
Any student or faculty questions related to VIA assessments should be sent to viahelp@gmu.edu.

If a program decides to create new VIA assessment rubrics, or edit existing VIA assessment rubrics, AERO needs to be informed.
