Refocusing the Academic Program Review on Student Learning: The Role of Assessment.

Gentemann, Karen M.; And Others

New Directions for Institutional Research, n84 p31-46 Win 1994

A strategy is proposed for using student assessment to support the role of colleges and universities as learning-centered communities. It reframes the practice of formal, internal academic program review to focus on student learning and provides examples of data needed to support this process, some generated by the institutional researcher and some with the researcher's help and advice.
