Closing-the-loop requires bi-directional information sharing and communication between practices. Practices should log and track every referral request through completion. Receiving practices should also log referrals and notify requesting practices of the referral request disposition, including appointment date and time, and if referral is not appropriate or if unable to schedule. Subsequent cancellations or no-shows should also be communicated. Following a referral visit, the receiving practice should send a timely and clear response note to the referring practice.

Direct versus Indirect Measures of Assessment Direct measures of assessment require students to represent, produce or demonstrate their learning. Standardized instruments, student portfolios, capstone projects, student performances, case studies, embedded assessments and oral exams all provide direct evidence of student learning. Indirect measures capture information about students’ perceptions about their learning experiences and attitudes towards the learning process. Informal observations of student behavior, focus groups, alumni surveys, self-reports (i.e., NSSE), curriculum and syllabi analysis, exit interviews, and evaluation of retention rates are some examples. The difference between direct and indirect measures of student learning has taken on new importance as accrediting agencies such as WASC have required the use of direct measures to be the primary source of evidence. Indirect measures may serve only as supporting evidence. (See table on the following page.)
