Assessment Governance, Richard Weiner, Karl Benziger
Assessment Governance, Richard Weiner, Karl Benziger
Karl P. Benziger
There has emerged a web of exogenous forces emanating from national and regional accreditation associations, particularly a satellite professional association involved in teacher preparation called the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS). The reality of this web contradicts the implicit idealist sentiment in John Ishiyama’s report on the “Assessment of Student Outcomes’ meetings at the 2004 TLC where he describes “assessment as a voluntarist/bootstrapping “bottom up” effort of individual faculty members. [PS.27: 3, July 2004, 483-85.] Faculty are increasingly bombarded by outside agencies for standards inventory matrices, evaluation rubrics, and course maps.

Witness Of The Body: The Past, Present And Future Of Christian Martyrdom, Michael Budde
Witness Of The Body: The Past, Present And Future Of Christian Martyrdom, Michael Budde
Michael Budde
In an age of suicide bombers and paranoid political rhetoric, the concept of martyrdom can make ordinary Christians uncomfortable or even squeamish, filled simultaneously with fascination and with dread. In Witness of the Body, twelve scholars from across academic disciplines and church traditions attempt to demystify Christian martyrdom and resituate it within the everyday practices of the church. Beginning with the earliest church history, they explore the place of martyrdom in the church through all ages and into the future. Throughout, they remind readers that Christian martyrdom is neither a quick ticket to heaven nor a cheap political ploy, but …

San Benito County And California's Geopolitical Fault Lines, Corey Cook, David Latterman
San Benito County And California's Geopolitical Fault Lines, Corey Cook, David Latterman
Corey Cook
Over the past decade San Benito County has emerged as California's textbook bellwether county, narrowly mirroring statewide election results on ballot measures and statewide candidate races. San Benito's uncanny predictive power suggests the importance of California emerging political geography as it straddles the major political fault lines of the state. Neither northern nor southern, neither coastal nor inland, and neither urban nor rural, San Benito illustrates the broad geographic forces shaping contemporary California politics.

The issues in each are classified as low salience/high complexity, high salience/high complexity, and high salience/low complexity, respectively. Quality of comments submitted is analyzed across cases. It is suggested in conclusion that if costs are not accepted to better prepare citizens to be …
Linking Students With Community In Collaborative Governance: A Report On A Service Learning Class, Thomas A. Bryer
Linking Students With Community In Collaborative Governance: A Report On A Service Learning Class, Thomas A. Bryer
Thomas A Bryer
Collaborative governance is increasingly becoming a topic for scholarly research, practitioner skill development, and a component of graduate programs in public administration. This article documents a service learning project in a graduate level Masters in Public Administration class on cross-sector governance. The article begins with a brief review of literature on university-community relations and, specifically, the civic mission of institutions of higher education and the role of service learning in public administration programs. The teaching case is then introduced, with the full context and detail explained. Lessons are offered for replicating this kind of class. An analysis of the success …
