From the Ground Up: Program Assessment at Daytona State College (C)

In the fall of 2008, facing administrative pressure to provide data for program review, writing faculty at Daytona State College (a 2-year college offering limited 4-year degrees) created a grassroots assessment initiative. Almost two years into the process, it's time to re-evaluate, hone our instruments, and reflect on our purpose.

This highly interactive session will offer numerous opportunities for audience members to contribute to the discussion.
Pen and Paper to Web 2.0: Teachers and Students Moving through Multiple Learning Modalities (C)
