Effecting Positive Change: Institutional Learning Outcomes
This event has ended. Please visit https://www.bakersfieldcollege.edu/conference/ILO2014
National rhetoric has focused on counting how many students have earned a degree or certificate.
We as faculty who came into education because we believed in the fundamental power of education and its transformational impact have been disillusioned at the attention now being focused on counting numbers of students rather than focusing on what truly matters: what have students learned?
We in academia must lead this conversation and keep it in the forefront of policymakers. How do we make our case?
Have we collectively paused for a moment to ask these questions: What does an associate’s degree mean? What does a baccalaureate degree mean?
Let’s shift the conversation from quantity to quality now.
