Book of the Day

Pay attention, faculty:  You’ve been given the task to improve and implement your individual and departmental assessment.  Lucky for you, the library’s backed this with a preemptive strike and ordered a load of assessment-related material.  The one featured, Assessment Clear and Simple by Barbara Woolvard, is designed specifically to help educators alter habits, behaviors, and curriculum to better gauge their own performance, their department’s performance as a whole, and can be used to aggregate it all into the overall institution. And there are plenty more, educatation-specific and otherwise.

So get reading, impress a dean, impress your supervisor, and get your department assess..erizing?  Sounds good enough…
