Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report examines how college offices of alumni affairs, advancement and career services conduct surveys of alumni, with data presented separately for colleges at different enrollment levels, tuition levels, Carnegie class, and for public and private institutions. In addition, data is presented separately for offices of career services and offices of alumni services/advancement. The study helps its readers to answer questions such as: how often do colleges survey their alumni? What kind or types of alumni are surveyed? What are the response rates? Do response rates differ by type of alumni? If so, by how much have they changed? How are alumni reached? Through phone, mail, email or online survey vehicles? What measures are taken to increase response rates? How long are the surveys? What kinds of questions are asked? Have the surveys changed in recent years? Have particular topics become more or less popular? What has been the impact of consortia or partnership approaches to alumni surveying? What has been the impact on alumni surveying of the proposed Obama Administration measures to tie higher education funding to demonstrable career results for alumni? What is done with alumni survey data? Which departments at the college request it the most? Which departments do their own alumni surveying or contribute questions to the alumni surveys conducted by other departments?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing globalization of higher education has made it easy to compare problems, goals and tools associated with conducting alumni research around the world. This volume draws of the perspectives of authors from the United States, German, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands to illustrate the opportunities and challenges of applying alumni research to guide public policy and institutional reform. Topics include: Making an impact with alumni surveys Alumni studies as instruments of public policy: the US experience Increasing potentials of alumni research for curriculum reforms: German Research Institute Measuring competencies of higher education graduates Using alumni research to align program improvement with institutional accountability The emerging uses of alumni research in Spain Alumni studies in the United Kingdom The chapter authors examine ways in which alumni research in the United States and Europe is becoming more relevant to key audiences outside the university and how it is being used to inform important constituencies about the impact, purposes, and successes of higher education. The goal of this volume is to help institutional leaders use alumni research to respond to the increasing demands of state officials, accrediting agencies, employers, potential students, parents, and the general public. This is the 126th volume of the Jossey-Bass higher education report series New Directions for Institutional Research.

This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written for engineering faculty and department chairs as a practical guide to improving the assessment processes for undergraduate and graduate engineering education in the service of improved student learning. It is written by engineering faculty and assessment professionals who have many years of experience in assessment of engineering education and of working with engineering faculty. The book reflects the emphasis placed on student outcomes assessment by ABET, Inc., the organization that accredits most U.S. engineering, computer science and technology programs, as well as providing substantial equivalency evaluations to international engineering programs. The book begins with a brief overview of assessment theory and introduces readers to key assessment resources. It illustrates–through practical examples that reflect a wide range of engineering disciplines and practices at both large and small institutions, and along the continuum of students’ experience, from first year to capstone engineering courses through to the dissertation–how to go about applying formative and summative assessment practices to improve student learning at the course and program levels. For most institutions, assessment of graduate education is new; therefore, there are readers who will be particularly interested in the chapters and examples related to graduate education. This book concludes with a vision for the future of assessment for engineering education. The authors cover five basic themes:· Use of assessment to improve student learning and educational programs at both undergraduate and graduate levels· Understanding and applying ABET criteria to accomplish differing program and institutional missions· Illustration of evaluation/assessment activities that can assist faculty in improving undergraduate and graduate courses and programs· Description of tools and methods that have been demonstrated to improve the quality of degree programs and maintain accreditation· Identification of methods for overcoming institutional barriers and challenges to implementing assessment initiatives.

Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Undergraduate Psychology Education is dedicated to providing comprehensive coverage of teaching, pedagogy, and professional issues in psychology. The Handbook is designed to help psychology educators at each stage of their careers, from teaching their first courses and developing their careers to serving as department or program administrators. The goal of the Handbook is to provide teachers, educators, researchers, scholars, and administrators in psychology with current, practical advice on course creation, best practices in psychology pedagogy, course content recommendations, teaching methods and classroom management strategies, advice on student advising, and administrative and professional issues, such as managing one's career, chairing the department, organizing the curriculum, and conducting assessment, among other topics. The primary audience for this Handbook is college and university-level psychology teachers (at both two and four-year institutions) at the assistant, associate, and full professor levels, as well as department chairs and other psychology program administrators, who want to improve teaching and learning within their departments. Faculty members in other social science disciplines (e.g., sociology, education, political science) will find material in the Handbook to be applicable or adaptable to their own programs and courses.
