Use Of Departmental Review As Part Of The Assessment Process, James H. Mcbath
Use Of Departmental Review As Part Of The Assessment Process, James H. Mcbath
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article examines departmental review as a central instrument in outcomes assessment for higher education communication programs. Situating the practice within escalating legislative accreditation and board level accountability, it traces common anxieties that reviews may prompt program closure or reconfiguration. Through case analysis, this article identifies pitfalls arising from unclear objectives, partial data, and uneven participation, and then articulates two guiding principles: evaluation must rest on transparent standards and on evidence grounded in disciplinary knowledge. The discussion links evaluation criteria curriculum adequacy faculty quality resource allocation and graduate performance, with attention to external audiences who often misunderstand communication studies. Concluding …
The Assessment Movement: A Challenge And An Opportunity, Gary T. Hunt
The Assessment Movement: A Challenge And An Opportunity, Gary T. Hunt
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article surveys the evolving assessment movement in higher education, focusing on its implications for communication departments and curriculum planning. It contextualizes accountability pressures from federal policy, regional accreditation, and state legislatures, and outlines four assessment domains: basic skills, general education, major content, and student development. By comparing standardized instruments with locally designed measures such as portfolios, capstone courses, exit interviews, and assessment centers, this article highlights emerging strategies for documenting institutional effectiveness and student learning outcomes. Discussion addresses administrative faculty and student challenges, particularly in evaluating oral communication competency and critical thinking within speaking across the curriculum initiatives. Concluding …
Assessing Achievement With Standardized Tests: The Nte Speech Communication Examination, Robert N. Bostrom
Assessing Achievement With Standardized Tests: The Nte Speech Communication Examination, Robert N. Bostrom
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article evaluates standardized achievement testing as a tool for documenting communication competence and for certifying secondary school teachers, focusing on the National Teacher Examination in speech communication. It outlines historical rationales for objective assessment, reviews the structure of the Pre Professional Skills Test, Core Battery, and specialty area components, and describes ongoing revision of the speech communication specialty test. Detailed content specifications identify eight knowledge domains, including interpersonal communication, public speaking, media literacy, play production, and assessment. By comparing these domains with typical undergraduate curricula, this article exposes misalignments that create barriers for teacher preparation, and it recommends curricular …
Nontraditional Approaches To Assessment, Ellen A. Hay
Nontraditional Approaches To Assessment, Ellen A. Hay
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article examines innovative assessment strategies in higher education designed to satisfy accreditation mandates for demonstrable oral communication proficiency while fostering learning outcomes. It details oral communication across the curriculum, in which faculty embed speaking tasks and feedback mechanisms within diverse disciplinary courses, supported by systematic training, student resources, and administrative oversight. It then analyzes the assessment center model, adapted from industrial practice, where students engage in simulated organizational scenarios, submit written and oral artifacts, receive multi rater evaluations, and reflect through self assessment. By comparing these approaches, this article emphasizes the reciprocal relationship between assessment and pedagogy, underscores the …

The Influence Of Structure On The Function Of An Administrative Unit: Single Focus Academic Structure Or Multiple Focus Academic Structure Raising -- Some Of The Issues, Robert F. Ross, Philip Emmert
The Influence Of Structure On The Function Of An Administrative Unit: Single Focus Academic Structure Or Multiple Focus Academic Structure Raising -- Some Of The Issues, Robert F. Ross, Philip Emmert
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article applies systems theory to examine how academic structure influences departmental functions within small universities, it contrasts single focus academic departments and multiple focus academic departments, assessing their effects on instruction, research, service, enrollment stability, credit hour production, faculty workload, budget flexibility, and administrative power. Through conceptual analysis and illustrative cases, this article argues that multiple focus configurations foster interdisciplinary curriculum, broaden student recruitment, and enable efficient resource allocation, while single focus units face constrained scheduling, program vulnerability, and duplicated governance tasks. It details how structure shapes faculty roles, advising practices, laboratory sharing, graduate program coordination, and external relations, …

Counterpropagation Neural Network Detection Of Visual Primitives, Cynthia Lynn Johnson
Counterpropagation Neural Network Detection Of Visual Primitives, Cynthia Lynn Johnson
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
Psychological testing has shown that there is an early preattentive stage in the human visual system. At this level, simple features and properties of objects known as visual primitives are detected spatially in parallel by groupings of cells in the visual cortex known as feature maps. In order to study this preattentive stage in a machine vision system, the biologically inspired, highly parallel architecture of the artificial neural network shows great promise. This paper describes how the unique architecture of the counterpropagation neural network was used to simulate the feature maps which detect visual primitives in the human visual system. …
Declines In Student Achievement In Science-- Implications For Public Education, Robert P. Hogan
Declines In Student Achievement In Science-- Implications For Public Education, Robert P. Hogan
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
During the 1960s and 1970s, major innovative science curricula were introduced into public schools in the United States, and federal funds were used to improve the quality of science teachers. Nevertheless, student achievement in science has generally declined since 1963. This research focused on changes in four of the key variables related to science achievement--teachers, students, curricula, and school goals. The research examined (a) meta-analyses of the effectiveness of the innovative science curricula on student achievement, (b) research on changes in teacher and student characteristics during the last 30 years, (c) educational literature on changes in the goals of public …
