Brass, Jory – English in Australia, 2016
The 1966 Anglo-American Seminar at Dartmouth certainly stands as a landmark event in the history of English teaching. For the purposes of this Special Issue, however, I want to unsettle some familiar interpretations of Dartmouth by reading with and against a range of American responses to the conference published in the late 1960s and 1970s. As an…

Butin, Dan; Mahajan, Sanjoy – New England Journal of Higher Education, 2015
Seemingly every day brings a new moment where educators must confront the reality that they no longer know how to control nor predict what higher education will become.

Horn, Michael B. – Education Next, 2014
If 2012 was the year of the MOOC--massive open online course--then 2013 was the year the MOOC hype returned to Earth. Largely lost in the coverage in both years, however, was the impact MOOCs might have in high schools. Although the jury is still out on that question, high schools around the country are experimenting with adding MOOCs to their…

Silvern, Leonard C. – Educational Technology, 2013
The improvement of a professional group is due, in part, to its ability for introspection and self-evaluation.

Hugo, Esther – Journal of College Admission, 2012
What the author found most surprising about Richard Haines' survey on 1974 recruitment practices was that the major issues are still relevant.
