The current study discusses a collaboration between a librarian and several English Studies faculty to integrate information literacy content more thoroughly into an undergraduate foundational writing course and to assess information literacy outcomes in student artifacts from a pilot group versus a control group using an information literacy rubric. The results indicate that significant gains occurred in all aspects of information literacy when these concepts were broadly integrated into course content and reinforced at multiple points in the course.","PeriodicalId":56185,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Assessment and Institutional Effectiveness","volume":"171 1","pages":"106 - 139"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73359608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results and lessons learned from this type of collaborative assessment are shared.

Unfortunately, measuring change across time poses a number of rather significant problems. For instance, the functioning of the survey items and/or rating scale may change, even in instances where the same instrument was previously administered. This can alter the substantive meaning of the findings. Further, when raw scores are misused as measures, this poses additional problems due to ambiguous frames of reference. This article provides an overview of an alternative approach to objectively measuring change across time, and provides a demonstration of this useful technique.","PeriodicalId":56185,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Assessment and Institutional Effectiveness","volume":"149 1","pages":"19 - 32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77611370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Writing’s intrinsic subjectivity and the great variety of writing formats appropriate to diverse contexts raise fundamental questions about the empirical bias of the assessment culture taking root in U.S. higher education. At the same time, the academic training of humanist scholars, who typically have primary responsibility for writing pedagogy in universities, may predispose them to skepticism about assessment culture’s broader mission. This article narrates the process by which the Humanities Department at Lawrence Technological University implemented a writing assessment process designed to address these challenges and evaluates the data generated by this process.","PeriodicalId":56185,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Assessment and Institutional Effectiveness","volume":"1 1","pages":"171 - 195"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90937725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
