Join us for this discussion as we affirm the
centrality of assessment to our academic mission:
-
its importance to
the integrity of our teaching,
-
the reality of
its ongoing presence in our work, and
-
our commitment to
fulfill the promises we have made to ourselves and to our
external stakeholders in the wake of last spring’s NEASC review.
The first hour will feature the state of assessment
at UMaine following the NEASC review, and the second portion of this
discussion will showcase several departments regarding their
assessment work at the programmatic level.
