Part 1: Assessment Standards Are Broken
Eubanks, David
Assessment Update, v35 n6 p1-2, 15-16 2023
This issue of "Assessment Update" presents a three part series on fixing assessments. Assessment means different things, but it almost always includes accreditation reporting. In Part 1: David Eubanks describes what went wrong with the accreditation standards on learning assessment and the compliance culture that they created. This article's discussion is focused on institutional accreditors, which must accommodate a wide range of program types within a single assessment standard.
