VOICE is ALL: Content's Galore

VOICE is all. How it sounds.
Content's galore: trivial and profound.
Listen to the sound. Voice is all.


Bright College years, with pleasure rife,
The shortest, gladdest years of life;
How swiftly are ye gliding by!
Oh, why doth time so quickly fly?
The seasons come, the seasons go,
The earth is green or white with snow,
But time and change shall
naught avail ...
Assessing College Student Learning:
 Evaluating Alternative Models, Using Multiple Methods

Campus leaders face a bewildering array of different assessment methods—
standardized or locally designed tests and inventories, indirect methods
focusing on student self-reports of engagement or gains in learning, portfolios,
and other performance-based methods. This publication will help readers
make sense of the broad assessment landscape. Part 1, by assessment
expert Robert Sternberg and his colleagues, examines the psychological
theories of learning and achievement that underlie these diverse methods
and offers practical guidance on how to select among them. Part 2—five
case studies—presents profiles of how different institutions are implementing
comprehensive approaches to assessing student learning and the benefits
of using multiple methods in combination.

We're poor little lambs who have lost our way
Baa, baa, baa
We're little black sheep who have gone astray
Baa, baa, baa

Gentleman songsters off on a spree
Doomed from here to eternity
Lord have mercy on such as we
Baa, baa, baa

etc.

Content's galore. It's VOICE that counts.
Need we argue?  xxxooo, Presbyter
