From the Foreword: The challenge of the next decade will be not just to take stock of student learning, but to get better at generating it, intentionally, systematically, and continuously. The chapters in this volume are designed to remind that the management of assessment is much like the management of anything else. What is needed is an explicit plan, consistent with the institution's mission and values, that documents in sufficient detail what needs to be done and who is to do it.... (Peter T. Ewell )

Because Higher Education Assessments is aimed at leaders, the book fills a critical need and void. A number of points drive the power of the book: a connection to the mission and a well-defined broad spectrum of diversity that success should result in more support for what works and that a systems approach allows institutions to think about rewarding successful programs with additional resources. (Catherine Andersen )

The message of the book frames the assessment vehicle for better education, for better learning, for better program design. (Andrew T. Phillips )

If anyone were to ask me who needs another book on assessment? I would answer, we do! Presidents, provosts, and members of the senior leadership team whose task is not how to do assessment but how assessment should be done with purpose. That purpose is to align all that we do so that in the end we will fulfill the fundamental purposes of our institutions. The book is a winner! (Earl H. Potter )

I can comfortably say I am impressed by the energy, thinking and empirical work that has evolved and is described in this book regarding the partnership in the learning enterprise…the emergence of the novel idea of putting students first in assessments…what an important concept. (Joseph Crowley )

The book will serve as a tool for leaders to determine which areas of assessment matter most at their institutions and how they can measure progress. (Presidency ) Gary L. Kramer is professor of counseling psychology and special education in the Center for the Improvement of Teacher Education and Schooling, Brigham Young University. Randy L. Swing is executive director of the Association for Institutional Research (AIR) in Tallahassee, Florida. MORE EBOOKS:
