Working with Pearson as a Supporting Partner
Lourdes Norman-McKay, Ph.D.Florida State College Jacksonville
“Colleges must do their part to keep costs down, and it’s our job to make sure they do. Tonight, I ask Congress to change the Higher Education Act, so that affordability and value are included in determining which colleges receive certain types of federal aid. And tomorrow, my Administration will release a new “College Scorecard” that parents and students can use to compare schools based on a simple criteria: where you can get the most bang for your educational buck.”
President Barack Obama State of the Union Address 2013

Analyzing and Reporting Achievement of Student Learning Outcomes
Spellings’ CommissionMargaret Spellings U.S. Secretary of Education from 2005 to 2009; Commission Report September 26, 2006
“Parents and students have no solid evidence, comparable across institutions, of how much students learn in colleges.”
“Student achievement, must be measured by institutions on a “value-added” basis that takes into account students’ academic baseline when assessing their results.”
Formative and Summative Evaluation
• Formative evaluation: An evaluation geared at improving performance and directing/redirecting a process; information is gathered to direct change.
