Development of a Knowledge Survey as a Hierarchical Assessment Vehicle
John Rutter and Anton Weisstein (both Science)
The National Survey for Student Learning (Pascarella, 2001) concludes that the most important thing instructors can do to increase student learning is to organize their course content.  Knowledge Surveys are a superior tool for accomplishing that.  See more about knowledge surveys here.  And be sure to join Rutter and Weisstein to find out how they developed such a tool in the Truman environment.  We will extend the Weekly Lunch deal to this assessment colloquium.  Sign the sheet at checkout to receive up to $3.00 toward your Sodexho meal.
