The Use of Expert Judgment in the Assessment of Demonstrated Learning in the Antioch College-Yellow Springs Adult Degree Completion Program. CAEL Institutional Report No. 1. Antioch College.
Lewis, Robert
The implementation of the Adult Degree Completion Program (ADCP) at Antioch-Yellow Springs is described. The ADCP is a transfer program designed to enable adults who have never finished colege to complete their undergraduate degree work, often without having to abandon their obligations to families or to professions. To enroll in the program, applicants must: be at least 25 years old, have spent at least two years as homemakers, employees, or community service volunteers, have successfully completed at least one year of college, and have not attended college in the past two years. Eight case studies illustrate the evaluation criteria used by Antioch College faculty evaluators to determine the amount of equivalent college credit earned. Concerns expressed by faculty members regarding this evaluation include: (1) the need for supporting materials from students, (2) the amount of faculty contact necessary for effective evaluation, and (3) the need for clear communication with students regarding their demonstrated learning. Forms used for crediting demonstrated learning and for documenting agreements regarding degree requirements are appended. (MV)
