For example, for 18 yearsIndianapolis, Indiana has hosted a Spirit & Place Festival (S&P). The S&P describes itself as acivic collaboration of the arts, humanities and religion. The festival committee explains its goalby saying that it “mobilizes ideas, brings disparate people and organizations together to partnerand converse, and sparks action for the common good.

The blind evaluation used an aggregate figure [N/SLO2] for these three elements, which is compared against an average of the instructor’s threevalues at Times 1 and 3. This “critical understanding” learning outcome is the primary metric bywhich student performance was measured.In addition to course learning outcome evaluation, seven additional ASHE Education forSustainability (EfS) learning outcomes were assessed: 1) Each student will be able to define sustainability.
