To some of us the 14th century academies of Padua and Mantua represent the finest in our pedagogical traditions! Others believe our athletic teams are critical and primary to our success in our colleges and universities! And we can all agree that contemporary initiatives in higher education offer access and opportunity beyond the wildest dreams of our earliest teachers!
There is a sense of excitement in colleges and universities today, of unparalleled growth and action. With new technologies and possibilities there are all kinds of questions, and all kinds of occasions for disagreement: are we stuck in the past or moving too quickly, should we prepare students for specific careers or teach them how to learn, how to think critically? What knowledge, understanding, and skills do our students and professionals need to be successful?
Are we successful in the ways work together as professionals in this rapidly changing environment? The world is moving at a rapid pace, and our initiatives and responses must be savvy, thoughtful and nimble, but we can still bring thoughtful and time-honored traditions to the workplace in the ways we relate to each other and work together.
We live in a culture of assessment; evaluation is critical to the whole of our efforts and performance, and to planning for the next phases.
