Book Institutional Effectiveness Fieldbook

Download or read book Institutional Effectiveness Fieldbook written by Daniel Seymour and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Institutional effectiveness (IE) is an emerging structural design in colleges and universities that is the antidote to its traditional loose-coupling where independence and autonomy lead to a lack of strategic intent. The focus is on "creating coherence" or developing an approach that leads to greater interdependency, greater coordination, and more information flow. The book begins with an explanation of IE and the environmental imperatives that suggest why it is critical to higher education. Systems thinking, organizational design, and model building are the core chapters followed by an extensive chapter on challenges to the IE imperative. Extensive case studies are used in each chapter as well as "Questions to Ask" sections. An expanded "Resources" appendix is useful for those who need to explore the cross-functional nature of institutional effectiveness at their institutions. This is the second book in a Fieldbook series. The first-Future College Fieldbook: Mission, Vision, and Values in Higher Education (2016)-is being used in strategic planning sessions and retreats to help institutions with the difficult job of direction-setting. The general approach to the series is to use strong research and disciplinary bases for the work and to also include a large number of current examples from different institutional types.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PLANNING AND ASSESSMENT IN HIGHER EDUCATION Demonstrating Institutional Effectiveness In this era of increasing pressure on higher education institutions for accountability, Planning and Assessment in Higher Education is an essential resource for college and university leaders and staff charged with the task of providing evidence of institutional effectiveness. Michael F. Middaugh, a noted expert in the field, shows how colleges and universities can successfully measure student learning and institutional effectiveness and use these results to create more efficient communications with both internal and external constituencies as well as promote institutional effectiveness to support student learning. "How can the assessment of institutional effectiveness be used to provide a solid foundation for planning? Middaugh has crafted a comprehensive, practical guide that also explains what accrediting agencies really want and need to know about these topics." Elizabeth H. Sibolski, executive vice president, Middle States Commission on Higher Education "Only Michael Middaugh, the unquestioned national leader in this field, could write such a lucid overview of how to make institutional assessment and planning really work as a tool rather than as a tedious requirement. He helped invent and shape the focus of national assessment rubrics and now offers his insights into how to make them work for your institution." John C. Cavanaugh, chancellor, Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education "Middaugh provides extremely helpful and practical guidance and insights on how colleges and universities can use assessment tools and frameworks to improve both academic programs and administrative operations. A valuable and timely book for all higher education leaders." James P. Honan, senior lecturer on education, Harvard Graduate School of Education

Download or read book Institutional Research Initiatives in Higher Education written by Nicolas A. Valcik and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American higher education faces a challenging environment. Decreasing state appropriations, rising costs, and tightening budgets have left American colleges and universities scrambling to achieve their missions with ever more limited resources. Campus leaders have therefore increasingly relied upon institutional research and strategic planning departments to make transparent and rational decisions and to promote good stewardship of critical but finite resources. Institutional Research Initiatives in Higher Education illustrates the wealth of institutional research activities occurring in American higher education. Featuring chapters by a prominent mix of authors representing community colleges, traditional undergraduate institutions, land grant institutions, research and flagship universities, and state agencies, this book provides numerous insights into the contemporary challenges, innovative programs, and best practices in institutional research. With contributors from a variety of regions and types of institutions, each chapter provides rigorous analysis of campus-based research activities in areas such as strategic planning, admissions and enrollment management, assessment and compliance, and financial planning and budgeting. Like the departments it studies, Institutional Research Initiatives in Higher Education is an invaluable resource for university administrators, researchers, and policymakers alike.
