Download or read book Shaping the College Curriculum written by Lisa R. Lattuca and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-08-17 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shaping the College Curriculum focuses on curriculum development as an important decision-making process in colleges and universities. The authors define curriculum as an academic plan developed in a historical, social, and political context. They identify eight curricular elements that are addressed, intentionally or unintentionally, in developing all college courses and programs. By exploring the interaction of these elements in context they use the academic plan model to clarify the processes of course and program planning, enabling instructors and administrators to ask crucial questions about improving teaching and optimizing student learning. This revised edition continues to stress research-based educational practices. The new edition consolidates and focuses discussion of institutional and sociocultural factors that influence curricular decisions. All chapters have been updated with recent research findings relevant to curriculum leadership, accreditation, assessment, and the influence of academic fields, while two new chapters focus directly on learning research and its implications for instructional practice. A new chapter drawn from research on organizational change provides practical guidance to assist faculty members and administrators who are engaged in extensive program improvements. Streamlined yet still comprehensive and detailed, this revised volume will continue to serve as an invaluable resource for individuals and groups whose work includes planning, designing, delivering, evaluating, and studying curricula in higher education. "This is an extraordinary book that offers not a particular curriculum or structure, but a comprehensive approach for thinking about the curriculum, ensuring that important considerations are not overlooked in its revision or development, and increasing the likelihood that students will learn and develop in ways institutions hope they will. The book brings coherence and intention to what is typically an unstructured, haphazard, and only partially rational process guided more by beliefs than by empirically grounded, substantive information. Lattuca and Stark present their material in ways that are accessible and applicable across planning levels (course, program, department, and institution), local settings, and academic disciplines. It's an admirable and informative marriage of scholarship and practice, and an insightful guide to both. Anyone who cares seriously about how we can make our colleges and universities more educationally effective should read this book." —Patrick T. Terenzini, distinguished professor and senior scientist, Center for the Study of Higher Education, The Pennsylvania State University

Book excerpt: "What is the mission of the American college? Is it reasonable to expect to measure quality in our collegiate system? How do we adequately assess quality and still allow for diversity?" "In The Evidence for Quality, E. Grady Bogue and Robert L. Saunders answer these and other compelling questions as they take a comprehensive look at how quality is measured and how information on quality contributes to academic decision making. The book offers a synthesis of practices and policies in collegiate quality assurance, examining a range of contemporary approaches that include accreditation, student feedback, professional licensure, college rankings and ratings, and other measures of academic quality." "Bogue and Saunders offer a quality assurance model that links principles of good practice to a strategic, unifying vision of quality. They evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of each approach and show how each makes a contribution to academic decision making. They draw on examples from numerous colleges and universities to demonstrate how various institutions developed strategic and effective quality assurance programs. And they set forth guidelines for all educators who are dedicated to developing a superior program of quality assurance that is as unique as their individual campus."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
