Learning Unbound: Evidence-based Design and Education’s Third Horizon Candic ...
One of the most powerful features of technology-enhanced learning environments is that they allow us to embed ongoing formative assessment and feedback into instructional activities. Using intelligent tutoring, virtual laboratories, simulations, and frequent assessment and feedback, the Open Learning Initiative at Carnegie Mellon University supports flexible and responsive instruction that fosters learning. As students work through OLI courses, we use technology to collect real-time data that informs four positive feedback loops: feedback to students, to instructors, to course designers, and to learning science researchers. The results are promising. Our experience shows that educational technology can make higher education less expensive and more accessible while increasing effectiveness -- breaking the iron triangle - while serving greater numbers of students who bring enormous variability in their background knowledge, relevant skills and future goals. In fact, learning technology may be essential, if we are to meet President Obama's goal to raise the nation's college graduation rate to 60% by 2020.

Steve Sobak Implementing BCM In The Healthcare Industry : Singapore Experience
Planning a BCM/BCP is a series of strategic plans to be implemented to mitigate or minimize any condition that could potentially close or create a major disruption in service provision. Individual departments may have specific contingency plans in response to certain actions occurring, but it may not be “plugged-in” to an organization wide plan to prepare a response to a disruptive event that potentially threatens operation, or the survival of the organisation. Steve Sobak provides insight into how the Singapore healthcare industry embraces BCM in a holistic manner.

Underprepared Students, Underprepared Institutions: Transformation 360º
Academy for College Excellence (ACE) serves under-prepared college students. Through a full-time semester-long accelerated program, ACE helps students learn and transform themselves from the inside out as they rethink their relationship to learning and to college. But the ACE program works because it transforms institutions as well as students. It is classroom-based, and much of what students in other programs get through outside counseling, ACE students get in the classroom. Over the last 8 years, ACE has demonstrated that it is both sustainable and scalable, today serving over 750 students in seven community colleges across three states. This talk focuses on ACE's program design, the transformations it requires, and how two-year and four-year institutions alike can adapt its approach to their own mission and students.
Intending Learning and Learning by Intent: 10 Ways in Which a Degree Qualific...
At present, there is no national consensus in the US on the learning outcomes appropriate to associate, baccalaureate, and master's degrees. Such a consensus could serve many purposes, but one of the most important would be its potential positive impact on the learning process. Gaston has written on the Bologna Process and was one of the consultants to the Lumina Foundation's draft degree qualifications profile, titled "A Transformational Challenge for U.S. Higher Education." In his talk, he focuses on the advantages US students would enjoy as a result of more clearly defined expectations at each degree level. He also suggests ways in which such expectations might enhance the process of institutional accreditation.

ACSCU New ALO Lunch
The document provides four recommendations for new Academic Liaison Officers (ALOs) regarding their role with the WASC Accreditation Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities. The first recommendation is to learn and use the CFRs (Criteria for Review) as they provide the foundation for strong decision making and policy. The second is to keep the broader vision of good teaching, deep learning, and evidence-based decision making in mind amidst details. The third is to share this vision by explaining WASC's goals to colleagues and distributing WASC guidelines. The final recommendation is to accept invitations to serve on visiting teams to gain experience evaluating other institutions.
Anya Kamenetz DIYU at the 2011 WASC ARC
Colleges and universities today can no longer afford to conduct business as usual. The pressures of rising costs and ever-stronger mandates for accountability, access and success are too strong. Students, meanwhile, have urgent questions about the return on their investment and the relevance of the education they're receiving in a 21st century context. The way we connect, communicate, and access information is changing every day. When will these changes substantially affect education? Kamenetz addresses all these concerns and sets forth her vision of a future that includes personal learning networks, personalized learning paths, expanded peer learning and assessment, and learning that blends experiential and digital approaches. Faculty and administrators need to lead the way from the second to the "third horizon" of change by incorporating the seeds of future transformation while improving their institutions' working today.

WASC CPR 2010_aubyn fulton
The document summarizes the process of preparing for a WASC accreditation review at Pacific Union College, a small Adventist liberal arts college. It describes establishing a WASC planning committee with faculty, staff, and administration representation to oversee the self-study. The committee separated duties between a chair for continuity and a writer to craft the report. Extensive communication kept the campus informed and involved through meetings, emails, and a website. While the process was time-intensive, dividing tasks and gaining input helped produce an honest self-assessment that satisfied the accreditation team.
