摘要

几十年来,教育领域一直因未能区分博士学位和教育博士学位而受到批评。然而,卡内基教育博士项目最近将EdD重新定义为专业实践博士,并为项目(重新)设计提供了一个框架,其中包括从业者知识的生成和应用,以识别、调查和解决实践问题。这种对(重新)设计教育发展课程的重新关注,为重新思考教育发展课程中的博士评估提供了及时的切入点。这份文件分析展示了如何重新构想一种几乎无处不在的评估,即综合考试,作为加强面向从业者的项目成果的场所。这份手稿报告了教育发展部项目如何实施替代性综合考试,以支持学生朝着各种以从业者为导向的项目结果发展。研究结果表明,替代评估促进了学生在所有项目结果中的成长,并使学生能够满足传统综合考试的几个目的,同时也表明综合考试的其他目的与EdD教育的修订愿景不一致。这项研究的意义在于,EdD评估应与项目结果保持一致,项目管理员应放弃传统的综合考试,转而进行支持从业者成长和发展的评估。

Linking assessments to program outcomes in practitioner-oriented EdD programs: An alternative to comprehensive examinations
For decades, the field of education has been criticized for failing to distinguish between the PhD and EdD degrees. However, the Carnegie Project on the Education Doctorate has recently redefined the EdD as a professional practice doctorate and offered a framework for program (re)design that includes the generation and application of practitioner knowledge to identify, investigate, and solve problems of practice. This renewed focus on (re)designing EdD programs provides a timely segue into rethinking doctoral assessments in EdD programs. This document analysis demonstrates how one near-ubiquitous assessment, the comprehensive examination, can be reimagined to serve as a site for reinforcing practitioner-oriented program outcomes. This manuscript reports how an EdD program implemented alternative comprehensive examinations to support student growth toward a variety of practitioner-oriented program outcomes. The findings indicate that the alternative assessments fostered student growth in all program outcomes and allowed students to meet several purposes of traditional comprehensive exams while also demonstrating that other purposes of comprehensive exams are misaligned with revised visions for EdD education. The implications of this study are that EdD assessments should be aligned with program outcomes and that program administrators should abandon traditional comprehensive exams for assessments that support practitioner growth and development.
