They also help track the effectiveness of teaching styles by testing whether thestudents are learning the basic concepts in the course.In this paper, we present the results of the tests for both Fall 2005 and Fall 2006 and analyze theresults to assess the students’ performance and determine evidence of learning outcomes.
