About this title

Synopsis

This book offers a framework for addressing such questions as: • What should students be able to do, and how should they be able to think as a result of study in a discipline? • What does learning in the disciplines look like at different developmental levels? • How does one go about designing such learning and assessment in the disciplines? • What institutional structures and processes can assist faculty to engage and teach their disciplines as frameworks for student learning?
