Internationalizing Honors, Kim Klein, Mary Kay Mulvaney
National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs
This monograph takes a “holistic approach to internationalization. [It] highlights how honors programs and colleges have gone beyond providing often one-time, short-term international experiences for their students and made global issues and experiences central features of their honors curricular and co-curricular programming. It presents case studies that can serve as models for honors programs and colleges seeking to initiate and further their internationalization efforts and highlights the latest research on the impact of internationalization on our students, campuses, and communities.” * * * “Our hope is that this monograph will serve multiple audiences: faculty wishing to develop new globally focused …

The Demonstrable Value Of Honors Education: New Research Evidence, Andrew J. Cognard-Black , Editor, Jerry Herron , Editor, Patricia J. Smith , Editor

“We all know—instinctively, experientially—that what we as honors teachers and administrators do for our students adds value to their college education and general college experience. Providing hard, demonstrable evidence for that which we know in our bodies as it were . . . turns out not to be so easy, a fact anyone who has had to make the case for additional, or even simply continued, honors funding to a new dean or college president has likely encountered. The results presented in this volume provide, in a diversity of ways via a diversity of research approaches, the sorts of evidence …

Assessing And Evaluating Honors Programs And Honors Colleges: A Practical Handbook, Rosalie Otero, Robert Spurrier
Assessing And Evaluating Honors Programs And Honors Colleges: A Practical Handbook, Rosalie Otero, Robert Spurrier
National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs
Systematic use of evaluation and assessment is one of the core principles guiding education. A considerable portion of current educational research addresses the effectiveness of evaluation and assessment at all levels of education. The relevance of assessment and evaluation has been dramatically increased by the current political tendency to decentralize the responsibility for educational processes. At the same time, students and parents are becoming more aware of differences in quality between schools and programs and more inclined to hold faculty and administrators accountable for their institutions' achievements. Both developments have led to a need for setting explicit standards for educational …

Honors Programs At Smaller Colleges, Samuel Schuman
National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs
This little pamphlet first appeared in 1988 which, from the perspective of American higher education, is either just yesterday or eons ago. At the end of the '80s, in that First Edition, it was still possible to suggest that a fully-equipped Honors office space should have "a computer or typewriter," a suggestion which today sounds more appropriate for a museum of antique office machinery than an up-to-date operation. On the other hand, some of the same questions about access and elitism which troubled us over a decade ago continue to be contemporary concerns. This revision, like most, seeks to preserve …
A Handbook For Honors Administrators, Ada Long
A Handbook For Honors Administrators, Ada Long
National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs
Honors administrators are singular creatures on their own campuses. Deans have other deans, vice presidents have other vice presidents, but honors directors are one of a kind. Often they have more in common with their presidents than with anyone else on campus in that they are responsible for a huge array of tasks: recruitment, admissions, scholarships, fundraising, curriculum development, advising, student life, crisis management and public relations; but, while college presidents have administrators to whom they delegate those various responsibilities, an honors director often does them all personally.
This handbook is intended, therefore, to serve as an on-campus companion and …
Honors Programs: Development, Review, And Revitalization, C. Grey Austin
Honors Programs: Development, Review, And Revitalization, C. Grey Austin
National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs
This is a monograph on the development and review of honors programs. Both subjects are treated in a single handbook because the materials presented here are useful in each process. The section on principles and practices of honors education in the United States (the overview) is background for those who would plan an honors program; for those who are reviewing and evaluating an existing program, the overview provides the means for educating those whose experience with honors is limited to the honors program of a single institution. It may add little or much to the director's knowledge, but it is …

Evaluating Honors Programs: An Outcomes Approach, Jacqueline Reihman, Sara Varhus, William R. Whipple
National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs
The evaluation of academic programs has always been a complex and sensitive issue. Evaluations are undertaken to determine which programs will survive in an era of straitened economic circumstances, to gain or maintain accreditation, or to tell us how our programs can be improved. They may apply some normative standard of quality, 0r address an academic program's unique situation and mission. They may include the following: review of budget, evaluation of staff, description of the program's operation, demonstration of faculty and student satisfaction, or measures of what students have learned. They may use standardized or locally developed tests of achievement; …
Relevance And Higher Education: National Collegiate Honors Council Proceedings, Annual Meeting, 1968, Walter D. Weir
Relevance And Higher Education: National Collegiate Honors Council Proceedings, Annual Meeting, 1968, Walter D. Weir
National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs
The papers in this volume were presented at the third annual meeting of the National Collegiate Honors Council at the Olympic Hotel in Seattle, Washington, October 18-20, 1968. The papers indicate our focus on the problems of the relevance of curricula to learning and the relevance of higher education to the world. Black and white students alike urged us to make our programs, our curricula, and our concerns more relevant to the moral and social issues of our time, more relevant to a truly liberal education.

Proceedings Of The Second Annual Meeting Of The National Collegiate Honors Council. Washington, D.C. October 20-22, 1967, Walter D. Weir
National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs
The National Collegiate Honors Council conducted its second annual meeting at the Statler-Hilton Hotel, Washington, D.C., October 20-22, 1967. About 230 faculty members, administrators, and students attended this meeting. The proceedings of that meeting are contained in this volume. The meeting was basically devoted to three concerns: (1) the problem of liaison between secondary schools and college honors programs; (2) problems and developments in the offering of science courses for honors students; (3) the exchange of information about problems and new directions in the honors program of those participating in the meeting. For the most part, the papers in this …

Proceedings Of The First Annual Meeting Of The National Collegiate Honors Council. University Of Kansas, Lawrence. October 22-24, 1966, Walter D. Weir
National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs
The National Collegiate Honors Council held its first annual meeting on the campus of the University of Kansas, October 22-24, 1966. The proceedings of that meeting are contained in this volume. This new association is a response to the expressed desire of many hundreds of educators throughout the country that, when the Inter-University Committee on the Superior Student (ICSS) was terminated in 1965, a national organization of individuals as well as institutions be formed. The new organization would carry on some of the functions of ICSS but would be free also to develop in ways appropriate to the present status …
