AACU
Liberal Education
and America's Promise (LEAP)
My addiction to spam-&-blog each day
represents the outcome of personally
integrating the TRIAD of Academics
& Work & Service.
The role of Joker, Jester & the Fools Errand
in the King’s court is to make a monkey of the
petitions of the petitioners: to mock & satirize,
rant & ridicule – a purgatorial washing in the
blood of the slam, say, hosing down to see if
it stands up. And if so, the King considers.
I’ve done best I can & still continue to mock
the robust Rubric Values & Assess Mental
Learning Outcomes Across the Curriculum
that inexorably commands our collective mind-
set as dominant pair of dimes undiminished &
unaffectded by my best rye posts—standing
stalwart, rhinoceros to my rice crispies &
impotent imporvised explosive devices. .
Who can question the desirability of pursuing
the following frontiers yet unknown? And what
student, his time come round again, wouldn't
slouch toward Bethlehem to be born and born
again?
Intellectual and Practical Skills, Including
- Inquiry and analysis
- Critical and creative thinking
- Written and oral communication
- Quantitative literacy
- Information literacy
- Teamwork and problem solving
in the context of progressively more challenging
problems, projects, and standards for performance
Personal and Social Responsibility, Including
- Civic knowledge and engagement—local and global
- Intercultural knowledge and competence
- Ethical reasoning and action
- Foundations and skills for lifelong learning
and real-world challenges
- Integrative and Applied Learning, Including
and responsibilities to new settings and complex problems
These power-point bullets along with appropriate rubrics
indicate Measurable OUTCOMES. Testimonials.
Not the ways & means.
Not the prompts and provocations.
Not the generators & generation. processes
Not the mess and guess, margins for error, rooms for play
which produce the measurable and desireable learning outcomes.
That would be horses of another color—pioneering robust
innovative tactics and strategies for these times of turbulence
and rapid technological change.. ..Yet to be devised.
