Conference Retrospective, T. Earle Bowen, Jr.

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

The Fifth Annual POD National Conference was held at Fairfield Glade Conference Center October 21-24. The conference evaluation report summary follows this report and once again Glenn Nyre has done a fantastic job.

The Fifth Annual POD Conference was, in my opinion, a success because of the 168 people who attended and contributed to the sessions and made the POD meeting a community.

Cse, Mo And Aa: Three Evaluation Strategies, Glenn F. Nyre, Clare Rose

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

A model for, a method of, and an approach to evaluation are summarized and discussed in this column. The CSE model, developed at UCLA's Center for the Study of Evaluation, is a decision-oriented model; the Modus Operandi Method presents an alternative strategy which can be used when experimental or quasi-experimental designs cannot be used; and the Adversary Approach suggests a process through which all positive and negative features of a program can be identified.

Diagnostic Testing In Mathematics, David L. Outcalt

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

High school graduates have been demonstrating less skills in mathematics at the same time that students entering colleges and universities need to have more of those skills to be able to succeed in an increasing variety of disciplines. One way to ease that problem is to develop criterion-referenced diagnostic tests together with remediation keyed to the results of such tests. Diagnostic tests of that type contrast with norm-referenced tests in that they provide a profile of strengths and weaknesses in each essential topic for every student. Such a profile has several important advantages. Students can receive advice in terms of …

Editor's Message, Winter 1979, David L. Outcalt

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

This is the last issue under my editorship. As has been planned from the start, Glenn Nyre will be editor for 1980, Volume 2 of this Quarterly. Originally, Lance Buhl was going to be editor for 1981, but his election as Executive Director precluded that since it is improper in volunteer organizations such as POD to ask an individual to take on the two most demanding responsibilities back-to-back. However, the developing strength of POD was demonstrated in the ease by which two highly qualified and enthusiastic members were recruited for future editorships: Sandra Inglis for 1981 and Robert Young for …

Executive Director's Message, Lance C. Buhl

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

I know that each Executive Director of POD has felt a surge of excitement at the prospects of managing the affairs of the Network for a year. And each would describe the complex bundle of that sensation in a distinctly personal way. For me, the excitement has to do with three clear themes.

Editorial Information, Winter 1979

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

POD Quarterly is a publication of the Professional and Organizational Development (POD) Network in Higher Education. POD is an association of people bound together by an interest in improving higher education through faculty, instructional, and organizational development activities and programs. The Network was created in 1976 so that those who share common interests and concerns could exchange information, ideas, and resources; enhance professional skills; debate issues and strategies; and contemplate and plan for the future. The POD Quarterly is designed to further those aims through refereed articles about professional, organizational, and instructional development practice and research. It will also include …

Differing Student And Faculty Perceptions Of Teaching Effectiveness And The Value Of Student Evaluations, George E. Stevens, R. Penny Marquette

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

Over the past decade, the use of student evaluations of teacher effectiveness has grown in popularity. The student typically completes a standardized evaluation form for the teachers of classes in which he or she is enrolled. Not only are more schools using this method of assessing teacher effectiveness, many also use the results to make faculty retention, promotion, salary, tenure and other personnel decisions. As Centra (1972) indicates, the question is no longer whether college teaching should be evaluated; it is how, when and by whom? Although various approaches to measuring teaching effectiveness exist (i.e., peer ratings, superior ratings, classroom …

Conference Demographics And Evaluation Summary, Glenn F. Nyre

POD Quarterly: The Journal of the Professional and Organizational Development Network in Higher Education

Thirty-four states, the District of Columbia and Canada were represented at POD's Fifth Annual Conference at Fairfield Glade, Tennessee. This introductory sentence should sound vaguely familiar to many of the Quarterly's readers, since it is numerically the same as last years' opening summary report statement. Tennessee and Canada, with 13 participants each, wrested top honors from last year's winner, Texas, which fell from 16 to 9 participants. Other double-digit states were Ohio and Virginia, with 11 each, and California and Illinois, with 10 each.
