CIATLE

Continuous Improvement Tools for Learning Enhancement

A suite of Windows desktop tools to help faculty and program coordinators measure, document, and improve course outcomes — with built-in support for ABET accreditation reporting.


The CIATLE Suite

CIATLE-FCE

Faculty Course Evaluation

Faculty use CIATLE-FCE to document course-level outcome data each semester. For each course outcome, faculty record grade distributions, outcome measures, and narrative reflections. Submissions are packaged and sent to the program coordinator for aggregation.

  • Define course outcomes (COs) and map them to program outcomes
  • Record semester-by-semester offering data
  • Import grade data from Excel
  • Export a .ciasub submission file to the coordinator

CIATLE-PE

Program Evaluator

Program coordinators use CIATLE-PE to import faculty submissions, aggregate outcome data across all courses in a program, and generate the reports needed for ABET accreditation review cycles.

  • Import faculty .ciasub submissions
  • Aggregate course outcomes to program outcomes by academic year
  • View outcome summary matrices and threshold results
  • Generate program-level accreditation reports

CIATLE-TRANSFER

Transfer Credit Assessment

CIATLE-TRANSFER assists programs in evaluating transfer credits for courses entering a program. It helps coordinators assess whether incoming coursework meets program outcome requirements.

  • Evaluate incoming transfer courses against program outcomes
  • Document assessment decisions for accreditation records
  • Maintain a consistent, repeatable review process

How CIATLE Works

CIATLE-FCE and CIATLE-PE work as a pair. Faculty gather data in FCE and submit it to the coordinator. The coordinator aggregates all submissions in PE to produce program-level reports. No server, no database — data moves between the two tools as simple files.

Step 1 — Faculty

Each faculty member opens their course file in CIATLE-FCE, adds a new semester offering, enters outcome measurement data and grade distributions, then exports a submission file.

Step 2 — Coordinator

The program coordinator imports all faculty submission files into CIATLE-PE. The tool aggregates course outcomes to program outcomes and calculates threshold results across the academic year.

Step 3 — Report

CIATLE-PE generates program-level accreditation reports from the aggregated data — ready for the ABET self-study or annual review process.
