QUE (Quality in Undergraduate Education) grew out of lack of consistency between outcomes for "feeder" courses at 2-year institutions moving to majors at 4-year institutions, but the organizers quickly realized that the same lack of continuity may be found from entry level courses and upper division courses at the same 4-year institution. The book provides the historical background of QUE, current practices, a theoretical framework for deploying this strategy in a local department and case examples from chemistry, biology, math, history, and English departments. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
This book describes a seven-year project--Quality in Undergraduate Education (QUE)--that produced important changes in departments and in the teaching of individual faculty in 21 two- and four-year institutions across four states. Rather than a blow-by-blow report of the project, it focuses on the problems that led to the development of QUE: concern about low levels of student learning in postsecondary institutions and demands by state legislatures that funds for postsecondary institutions be tied to assessment of student learning. The story is told first from the organizational perspective in national and local campus meetings, and then from the point of view of faculty in five chapters, one for each discipline of biology, chemistry, English, history, and mathematics. This description of QUE is intended as a model for administrators and faculty seeking to meet the challenges of increasingly diverse students as well as the increasingly divergent ways to earn a degree.
