An outcomes assessment instrument was created to measure student satisfaction in overall program content and specific skill levels at a four year college business degree program. The instrument includes a scale that measures student perceptions of effective teaching methods. Within the instrument are questions that can be used to measure information technology dimensions of computing availability and student perceptions of their own computing and information technology skills. Effective teaching methods measured include spreadsheet analysis, Internet based assignments, the use of PowerPoint, and the use of instructional technology.
