"Accreditation and Student Learning" is a collection of news and opinion articles -- in print-on-demand format -- about the effort by colleges and accreditors to measure learning outcomes. The articles aren't today's breaking news, but reflect long-term trends and some of the forward-looking thinking of experts about how colleges are responding to the pressure they're facing in accreditation to measure student learning. The goal is to provide these materials (both news articles and opinion essays) in one easy-to-read place. Download the booklet here.
This is the third in a series of such compilations that Inside Higher Ed is publishing on a range of topics.
On September 25, Inside Higher Ed's editors led a lively discussion on these issues in a free webinar. You can view the webinar by visiting this page and click here to download the accompanying slide deck.
The compilation of articles is made possible in part through advertising support from ETS.
