Exemplars of Assessment in Higher Education, Volume Two

In this second volume of the successful Exemplars of Assessment in Higher Education, editors Souza and Rose share examples of assessment practice from over fifteen distinct and diverse Higher Education Institutions, including international contributions. Building upon the work of the first volume, the case studies in this book reflect the changes in assessment and higher education in the post-Covid education environment.

The institutions that appear in this book were chosen for having an effective assessment approach in one or more of the following areas: career readiness; distance education; diversity, equity, and inclusion; or general education. Each part of the book discusses one of these four areas, with chapters that feature real-life examples from the educators who teach at the college or university. Featuring a Foreword by AAC&U President Lynn Pasquerella, the work highlighted in this book is also aligned with AAC&U’s Valid Assessment of Learning in Undergraduate Education (VALUE) initiative to help educators make the best decisions about measuring student learning.

This book is ideal for university educators and assessment practitioners looking to diversify and enhance their assessment practices.
