What do we know about student learning and development on our own
college
campuses? How can assessment help with our understanding of students
and
with planning and decision making?
Many institutions are beginning
to think about conducting some assessment
studies on their own college
campuses. For many, the biggest challenge of
doing assessment will be taking
the first step toward identifying what
needs to be assessed and
learning how to implement it. Here is how the
"Student Affairs Research
& Assessment" website can be useful for the
student affairs
community!
This website offers practitioners, administrators, faculty,
graduate
students, and research professionals an opportunity to view
implemented studies on 15 different student affairs related topics from various
institutions across the country.
There are also many useful student
affairs internet links and literature
resources. Additionally, we are
providing the opportunity for anyone to have
their work linked on this
website to share their research endeavors with
others.
The Research
and Assessment in Student Affairs website will be updated
weekly to include
new resources and contributions from folks around the
country. To learn more
