Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban provides an intellectual history of Harvard presidency of James Bryant Conant (1933-1953), situating it within the broader international landscape and drawing out the implication for the current state of higher education with reference to specific leadership policy issues in the sector. Throughout this volume, Urban explores the ways in which Conant achieved largely successful attempts to modernize Harvard by upgrading both its student body and its faculty. He explores the intellectual excellence agenda that Conant pursued both with students and academics, and the ramifications of this. He also considers the nature of Conant's part-time handling of the role of president, the way he delegated campus control to his Provost, Paul Buck, and the ways the two operated together and separately. Urban also looks at Conant's own intellectual breadth, as scientist and humanist, which showed itself prominently in his activities in pursuit of general education reform. Conant's combination of intellect and agenda was unusual for a president in his own time, and is exceedingly rare, if not completely missing, in contemporary university presidencies. In exploring this innovative president's time in office at Harvard, Urban offers pertinent ideas to today's leaders of higher education.

The third part analyzes related psychometric issues, and the final part reviews innovations in the field. This book is ideal for researchers and advanced students interested in automated essay scoring from the fields of testing and measurement, education, cognitive science, language, and computational linguistics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Progress made toward establishing an advanced program in english is discussed. The immediate objective of this program is to offer the best college-bound twelfth-grade students instruction and practice in composition. This instruction should increase the probability that cooperating colleges will excuse them from the usual freshman composition requirement and still grant them full college credit. A unique characteristic of the advanced standing program, which distinguishes it from the advanced placement program of the college entrance examination board, is that it has no one standard examination but leaves to each college the evaluation of the entering freshman's qualifications in the light of the individual college program. The advanced standing program offers several benefits to the students involved. The more intensive instruction should accelerate their development in thinking, writing, reading, and speaking, thereby aiding the students in adjusting to college studies. Some students, to their financial or personal advantage, may be assisted in reducing the number of terms spent in college. The teachers of this program should also benefit as a result of a summer seminar required before their first year of this special instruction. Indirectly, the teachers involved in this program may bring about improvement in the classes of their fellow english teachers and, perhaps, in the classes of colleagues in other disciplines.
